Dorland’s Wax is a versatile cold wax medium made from pure wax and damar resin. Popular as a protective topcoat for sealing and finishing a variety of media from oil paintings to collage, Dorland’s Wax is especially popular as a varnish for watercolour and gouache paintings. Dorland’s Wax provides a durable waterproof finish, adding depth to colour and allowing for glassless framing and display. The finish is malleable: leave it rough for a matte effect or buff with a rag after drying for a uniform high gloss. Dorland’s Wax is a sealant, varnish, and medium, all in one. It won’t yellow over time, and will protect artwork for the ages. Topcoat finish for: Watercolours, gouache, oils, acrylic, wood, polymer clay, pencil drawing, pen and ink, pour art, canvas, encaustics, ceramics, mixed media, collage, art paper & more. Mixable with: Oil colours, dry pigments, Pearl Ex Pigments, dye powders, charcoal, mineral spirits, turpentine, solvents & more. NEW! Introducing the new 1oz Dorland’s Wax – a smaller size which may be more appropriate for intro / watercolour artists. Jacquard recommend stocking the small size in the watercolour aisle and the larger sizes in the oil paint aisle.
