Available in 250 or 500 g pots.

How to achieve a Batik technique?

Traditional batiks or polychrome batiks (in several baths) can be made using this wax.

Start by melting the wax powder before applying any paint! Carefully apply the wax on the areas to be masked with a brush, a tjanting, a sponge or why not a stencil.

For a thick fabric, be careful to hide the backside of the fabric too. The wax hardens quickly.

Once the wax is cool, it will serve as a resist medium. You can then start applying the colour or now realize the dye bath(s).

When the colour is dry, remove the wax with the iron without steam and a blotting paper (or paper towel) that will absorb the wax. You can also put the whole achievement in the steamer and the wax will be eliminated.

Clean your tools with hot water.
