Product Description

Jacquard Encaustic Medium-1lb - 5A00346Q-1H5XL

• This 8/1 blend of White Filtered Beeswax and Damar Resin is perfect for encaustic applications.
• It comes in easy-to-measure pellets.
• Can be used alone for collage techniques or be mixed with any encaustic paints or pigments.
• The Damar resin raises the melting temperature so the wax is less susceptible to heat damage.
• It allows the Encaustic Medium to cure and harden over time, making it more durable and preventing blooming (a whitish haze that can appear on the surface of a painting).
• Resin also allows the Encaustic Medium to be polished to a high gloss, preventing blooming and giving it more depth and intensity.
• Although beeswax and medium are translucent, beeswax by itself will not maintain its translucency.
• Use in well-ventilated area.
• Melting point: 158F/70C
