Beeswax/Paraffin Wax Blend

Beeswax/Paraffin Wax Blend

Beeswax/Paraffin Wax Blend

The Beeswax & Paraffin Wax Blend is formulated specifically for batik and textile resist applications, combining the pliability of beeswax with the easy removability of paraffin. The mixture allows fine-line detailing while ensuring the wax cracks cleanly when folded, producing the signature batik “crackle” effect.

This blend melts evenly, adheres smoothly to fabric, and peels away easily after dyeing — leaving crisp, well-defined patterns. It is ideal for artists who want to achieve both control and character in their resist work.

Benefits

This wax blend is the batik artist’s standard — dependable, versatile, and easy to manage. It delivers reliable results whether you’re creating traditional motifs or modern textile art.

Perfect For:

  • Batik and resist-dyeing on cotton or silk
  • Workshop and teaching environments
  • Multi-layer batik work requiring reapplication and re-dyeing
