Waxes for Batik

+44 (0)1588 638712

WAX : We supply three types of wax - soya wax, beeswax and paraffin wax as well as our ready mixed batik wax which is perfect for general batik. All the waxes can be used alone or mixed together depending on the effect you want.

Beeswax is more flexible and is ideal for large areas, where it will cover without cracking.
Paraffin wax is more brittle and is ideal to give the crackle effect so characteristic of batik.
Soya wax is a more environmentally friendly wax which is easy to remove with hot water.
Our general purpose batik wax mix is 3 parts paraffin wax to one part beeswax.

Sorry, but because of postal restrictions we can't send wax outside the UK

Beeswax pellets

Beeswax is a very flexible wax which will give a very good resist against dye because it will bend rather than crack.

It can be used in conjunction with paraffin wax if you want to create a crackle effect. It also has a nice beeswaxy smell.

Paraffin wax pellets

White paraffin wax pellets give a brittle wax which can be cracked easily (which you may want for a fine crackle effect). If the wax is too brittle, add some beeswax to the pot to give a more flexible wax.
