I have used wrinkle paint for decades.  Maybe this brand is different, but it wrinkles better and produces a "finer" texture wrinkle if heated.  Just a heat lamp will do the trick.

A heat gun works well too, although baking in the oven will probably give the most consistent appearance.

After several e-mails with LVP tech support this morning, I managed to get a .pdf copy of their white winkle paint spec sheet (see attached). Normal air dry time is 10 minutes, handling is 1 to 2 hours. "Forced" drying time is 20 to 30 minutes at a maximum of 180F. It seems that an advancement in wrinkle paint technology is here.

It does IMHO though need to plan on doing it on a nice spring or fall day so you can open all the windows to vent the house before the wife gets home  ::)

To "survive", just tell the wife the part getting cooked is require for her own "blue" car and the oven will be used for only a half hour. You will survive.

I found out several decades ago not to use the kitchen oven. I made the same mistake as others . I got a second hand give a way stove/ oven to use in my shop for the wrinkle baking or stove top phosphate cooking problem solved.
