Paraffin Wax

Paraffin Wax is a refined, versatile wax commonly used in textile surface design, batik, resist work and mixed media. It melts at a higher temperature, offers good fluidity and can be blended with other waxes (like beeswax or soy) to adjust texture, cracking or finish behaviour. The listing appears under Wax in the product category.

Benefits

If your work requires robust wax film, defined resist lines or texture effects, paraffin wax gives you reliable flow and performance. It’s a solid studio staple.

Ideal Applications:

  • Traditional batik techniques on cotton or silk.
  • Surface design requiring bold resist lines or layered effects.
  • Studio work where consistent wax behaviour matters.

  • Refined paraffin wax for textile and craft applications.
  • Melts smoothly; can be applied through tintings, brushes or for dip methods.
  • Use alone or blend with beeswax or soy wax to customise the resist effect.

Heat slowly and monitor temperature carefully to avoid smoke. Filter used wax for reuse. Work on heat-safe surfaces, and clean up tools after use to preserve life and performance.
