Bleached Beeswax Pellets. 500 grams.
One of the most popular uses for artists using Bees wax is Encaustic painting, also known as hot wax painting, it involves using heated beeswax to which colored pigments are added. The liquid/paste is then applied to a surface — usually prepared wood, though canvas and other materials are often used. The simplest encaustic mixture can be made from adding pigments to beeswax, but there are several other recipes that can be used — some containing other types of waxes, damar resin, linseed oil, or other ingredients.
These pellets can be added to paraffin wax to form a candle mixture which burns with a pleasant and distinctive perfume they can also be heated and mixed with refined linseed oil for an excellent timber polish.
