Jacquard Dorlands Wax - 16 Ounce - Versatile Pure Wax and Damar Resin - Protective Topcoat for Sealing and Finishing

This stuff is amazing! I found it thru tiktok and was like no wayyyy there is something for exactly the problem I have!! You don't need much but keep same rag, I use muslin rag I took from my toddlers collection and now it's designated for this. Works perfectly and altho when you apply it and gentle circles to buff it into artwork it does not smudge the painting if it's completely dry of course but when you look at the rag there is some transfer there but it has zero effect on the painting no smudges! And now my gouache sketchbook doesn't have pages that stick and ruin each other and I'm not goin thru aerosol sealants that warp and ruin my artwork try to find something to seal and protect it! It's amazing definitely worth it, super easy to use! Just let your artwork completely dry, apply a thin thin layer of this stuff and then allow it to completely dry, takes about an hour ish depending your environment and the tack feeling disappears and the shine changes and it adds depth and a smoothness too your painting making it even more professional looking even in a sketchbook and prevents it from sticking to other pages and reactivation!

A friend told me about this. I use it to wax some of my watercolor paintings so they don’t need to be protected by glass. I bet it would work great on graphite or colored pencil to protect the surface and stabilize the material. I don’t think it would be suitable for pastels though, the application process might disturb the creamy strokes. It applies easily with a brush, and doesn’t smear the paint or alter the look of the art at all, but be aware that once it is applied, no changes can be made to the underlying surface. It’s permanent. I was actually hoping it would act more like a varnish, as in giving a bit of depth to the art and a more visible protective surface, but it it completely matte and natural. Maybe I will do some experiments by brushing gel medium over some waxed samples to see what happens. Have fun with this!

Easy to work with, finished product looks great! A little goes a long way, so even though it seems like you are getting just a small amount for the price, it is worth it!

I was excited when I came across this product in a YouTube short. I immediately ordered it, and I am NOT disappointed! It works great for watercolor and gouache. I made my own Christmas post cards and this works phenomenally! It does take awhile to dry, I let mine cure overnight. I definitely recommend. It washes out of a brush nicely as well. No smell. 10/10 would buy again

Easy to apply and seems to do good job on my watercolors

Works great. Seals the watercolors.

I really like this wax for watercolor paintings. It's very easy to apply with a paper towel, but it's important to use a light hand as you don't want to disturb the paint. It's really good amount of wax for the price and has no odor to it. It leaves a nice coating on the painting but is not high gloss, which is great.

I love this product to seal my watercolors. Easy to use. Since craft and art supply stores are harder to find, so is this. Most of the chain hobby stores I’ve been to, don’t carry this item.

Nutze es zum "Versiegeln" von Aquarellen, es funktioniert sehr gut. Dorlands Wax läßt sich leicht auftragen und hat nur einen geringen, für mich nicht unangenehmen, Eigengeruch. Daumen hoch.

للاسف وصلني مع بعض التسريب بسبب الحراره وخسرت جزء من كمية المنتج💔💔💔

Works well as described

Lo usamos para proteger cianotipos hechos en papel de alto gramaje y cumple perfectamente.

je l'utilise pour protéger des projections d'eau et des salissures les nuanciers peints à la main que je mets dans mes boites d'aquarelle pour les sorties croquis. C'est un super produit : ne fait pas baver la peinture, ne ternit pas et ne modifie pas les couleurs qui restent lumineuses. Je l'applique en deux couches fines que je laisse sécher entre les deux. Le produit a une consistance très agréable, ne coule pas, et s'étale facilement avec un couteau à peindre. Inutile de le chauffer contrairement aux recommandations. De plus, une très petite quantité suffit et il dure longtemps. Et mes nuanciers restent impeccables et parfaitement lisibles. Même si je trouve le produit un peu cher, je le recommande sans réserve et le rachèterai sans hésiter.
