The product of the excretion of the wax glands of bees, which solidifies quickly on cooling and serves as a building material for honeycombs, has also been used by man for many purposes since time immemorial. In painting, it is not only a technique of encaustic, but there are numerous cases where wax in the form of a paste, whether only as an additive or as a separate coating, is extremely valuable. In practice, bleached waxes are mainly used. Previously, only natural sun bleaching was used, in which the starting material, which was already as light as possible, was poured in a thin layer and exposed to the sun for a longer period of time. Today, waxworks have switched to chemical bleaching processes by boiling with water containing sulphites, to which a solution of chlorinated lime is added until the wax is coloured. Store in closed containers at temperatures up to 25°C.
Price per 1kg. The product can be purchased at the Prague store Zlatá loď.
