ther natural fabrics. Most weights will work, provided the wax penetrates all the way through the fabric, but the finer weaves work best for detail work. We used cotton, but feel free to use what you want. Silk is a little more challenging to work with because of its unique wicking properties.
Batik masters employ a process of repeated waxing and tub dyeing to achieve their final result. This method requires mastery of color mixing and over dyeing; as each layer of dye is applied over the last a new color is produced. You don't have to be a batik master, however, to get some great fun results.
BE CAREFUL !
If you heat the wax over 240°F, it can give off toxic smoke or burst into flames! Work with hot wax in a well ventilated area (it gives off fumes) and never leave hot wax unattended! In case of flaming emergency, DO NOT douse flaming wax with water! You can douse the flames with baking soda or a fire extinguisher. However, if you use the appliances recommended above, and exercise prudence and care, you should be able to control the temperature of the wax safely. We NEVER recommend using pots directly on the stove! Some folks are trying out our new Soy wax, which melts at a much lower temperature than the other waxes, reducing the chances of overheating. It is not as sturdy as the other waxes, especially on exposure to the soda ash, but folks are carefully working with its limitations because it is a renewable resource and totally non-toxic, including the fumes.
