FIVE STAR COLD WAX SOLUTION

FIVE STAR COLD WAX SOLUTION

Amazing bright colours in concentrate.



Non-toxic and tested to EC standards. Strong colours in powder form, which can be diluted to the desired depth of tone.



Ready-to-use water-soluble resist wax. Used as a resist for watercolours, inks, and dyes. Successive colour layers can be applied using the batik method. Air dries quickly and is a safer alternative with no fumes. Can also be used for screen printing with paints, inks, and dyes. Suitable for paper, clay, screens, and fabric (test first).



Unlike traditional beeswax/paraffin batik, our cold wax batik requires no heat. Simply brush the wax onto both sides of the fabric and dye with cold water dyes such as Procion. After fixing and drying the dye, wash out the wax with hot soapy water. For a stronger resist effect, we recommend painting the dyes onto the fabric instead of dip-dyeing. While cold wax batik offers a unique and easy-to-use alternative, it may not achieve the same level of detail as hot wax batik.


Helpful hints: To remove from printing screens, use hot water and detergent, scraping gently with a knife. For fabric, iron between two sheets of clean paper. If washing down a drain, run copious amounts of hot water afterwards to avoid blockages, as this is a wax product.
