@smishstudio 3 года назад

This is so cool!!! I never realized this is how that style of fabric dying was done. One question: how do you get the wax out?

@Handprinteduk 3 года назад

Most of the wax can be removed by ironing the batik between newspaper, changing the paper each time it fills with wax. Care must be taken here as the iron could start to smoke and need to be turned off the cool down. It's best to use an iron that's kept only for batik.

@smishstudio 3 года назад

@@Handprinteduk Thanks!

@punchjudy 2 года назад

You an also submerge your cloth in boiling water to strip the wax. I don't own an iron so this is how I've always done it.

Can you use any type of wax melting pot?

@jamesvpg9774 7 месяцев назад

When applying the wax on your batik does it need to go all the way through to the other side

@PresidentFunnyValentine 3 года назад

I've had hot wax spilled on my hand attempting to 'draw' my own batik. It sucks, but fun at the same time.

@ronniea.4830 2 года назад

Thank you for the tutorial, how do you keep the copper tool clean?

@Handprinteduk 2 года назад

When you've finished your batik, poor the excess wax back into the pot and leave it to cool down. Before using it next time it's a good idea to give it a buff with a cloth to remove any tarnish. There's no need to clean off the wax as it will melt next time you use it.

@@Handprinteduk Thank you, appreciate your help

@patriciamackenzie9636 2 года назад

Great video! Can silk dyes be used?

@Handprinteduk 2 года назад

Silk dyes are not ideal as they are either fixed by ironing or steaming - both of which would melt the wax.

@TritonLimArtist 2 года назад

how about using dharmatrading brand procion powder, is it same technique for preparing the color?

@Handprinteduk 2 года назад

I believe all Procion MX powders will work in the same way. The strength of colour and shades may vary

@deegeraghty9426 2 года назад

How do you take off the hardened wax ?

@handprintedltd8209 Год назад

@johnsomerset1510 Год назад

Great instructions, thanks, but don't you need to get rid of the wax at the end of it all, so that it becomes normal fabric again, so that you could make your fabric picture into one side of a cushion cover or whatever? Is it just meant to stay as a picture to hang on a wall?

@legoqueen2445 Год назад

Do you think the same method would work on a canvas using acrylic paints instead of dyes?

@Handprinteduk Год назад

No, acrylic paints won't work in the same way as dyes

@ayeshajamal762 3 года назад

Do show the finished result of this design. I'm curious to see how it looks after wash.

@Handprinteduk 3 года назад

I haven't washed this one - it's best to leave them unwashed if possible as washing will fade the colour, partly because the wax gives the illusion of a darker colour than is really there

@Itsjustlyz Год назад

Would acrylic and water be a good thing to use in fabric dye?

@Handprinteduk Год назад

Acrylic and water wouldn't work very well for batik, it would make the fabric quite stiff.

@dr.sitaratanveer3760 3 года назад

Excellent concise explanation. Are cold dyes get fixed by this?

@Handprinteduk 3 года назад

Yes, the cold water dyes are fixed if you use soda ash like in this demonstration. Some excess dye is likely to come out when washed though so limited washing is advised.

@deborahnaoum9998 Год назад

Once you mix the dyes and store them in the jars, how long do they last?

@handprintedltd8209 Год назад

If the Soda Ash is mixed in with the dye (like it is in our recipe) then the colours will only last for about two hours at full strength.

@deborahnaoum9998 Год назад

@@handprintedltd8209 What about before the soda ash is mixed in? I would like to mix up three small batches of the primary colours to keep for awhile and then use eye dropper quantities of each, plus the soda ash, to experiment with making colours. How long will these initial small batches of primary colours last? Thank you !

@handprintedltd8209 Год назад

@@deborahnaoum9998 Some people do that. The dyes will last a lot longer if you do it that way. A few weeks at least.

You can iron it between sheets of newspaper using an old iron (be careful - turn it off it it starts to smoke). Change the newspaper sheets until they stop filling with wax.
