Peace be upon you. I am a new follower of yours. I like your work. Can you teach me what to add with paraffin wax? Can I dye the wax for the stamp on the fabric? Can I also dispense with beeswax? What is the method for dyeing the fabric? Do I add boiling water to dye it and then dip the fabric in it that I previously stamped into the hot dye? What is it? What are the additions that I add to the Sabg? Thank you. Please respond
Thank you for your kind words and for following my work; I’m so happy you’re here! Paraffin wax can be used on its own, but many artists add beeswax to make it less brittle and improve its adherence to fabric. This mix helps create smoother lines and prevents cracking. Paraffin wax itself doesn’t hold dye, as it’s used primarily as a resist, meaning it blocks the dye from penetrating the fabric in areas where the wax is applied. This keeps those areas the original color of the fabric. You can omit beeswax if you’re working only with paraffin, though the texture may vary. Beeswax adds flexibility, so without it, paraffin might crack or flake more easily. Experimenting with both will help you find the best balance for your project. After applying wax designs, prepare your dye by dissolving it in boiling water. Once dissolved, lower the temperature of the dye bath to a level where it’s warm but not hot enough to melt the wax. Then, dip your waxed fabric into this warm dye bath. This way, the dye colors only the exposed areas while the waxed sections stay protected. Many people add salt or vinegar to the dye bath to help set the color. Always check the specific dye instructions for any recommended additives, as each type of dye is a little different. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have more questions.
Peace be upon you. Thank you. I liked your answer. I follow your beautiful page and interact with you. What is better for stamping? Paraffin wax or soy wax. Which one do I prefer to use when stamping batik? Is it possible to stamp on dark-colored fabrics such as black, brown, blue, and green? Thank you. I hope you can answer my question in detail. Thanks
For wax stamping in batik, both paraffin and soy wax can be used, but they have slightly different properties that may affect your results. Paraffin wax is popular for batik stamping due to its firmness and ability to hold intricate stamped patterns well on fabric. It cools and hardens quickly, making it easier to handle while keeping designs sharp. However, it’s not as eco-friendly and requires care when melting, as it has a higher melting point and can be brittle if stamped on heavily. Soy wax, on the other hand, is softer and more eco-friendly. It has a lower melting point, which makes it easier to stamp in layers, but it may not provide as crisp details as paraffin. For batik stamping alone (without crackling effects), soy wax is a gentle alternative, especially for lighter designs. For dark fabrics, note that wax itself doesn’t show up clearly, so lighter dyes or contrasting colors applied over the stamped wax area are best for clear designs.
Peace be upon you, my question to you is: Can I add only caustic soda to the dye and dispense with the second substance? Why is the wax, when placed on colored fabric, its color exactly like the color of the fabric? Please reply.
May God’s peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you. Can I dispense with caustic soda in dyeing a necktie, because I am very, very damaged by it? Can I suffice with table salt and sodium carbonate? I am waiting for your response. Thank you.
ameen. thank you Yes, you can avoid using caustic soda for dyeing a necktie. Instead, you can use a combination of table salt and sodium carbonate (washing soda) to fix the dye. While it may not be as strong as caustic soda, it can still work effectively, especially for lighter or less intense dyeing. Just ensure to thoroughly mix and allow adequate setting time for the best results. Stay safe!
Peace be upon you, your work is very, very beautiful. Please tell me what to mix with paraffin wax or to work with paraffin wax alone by making a stamp on the fabric. Can I stamp on dark and light colored fabrics as well? Please answer. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words and deep admiration. I am glad you enjoy my work and watch my videos. Please continue to watch and share your feedback. Answer to your first question: You can use paraffin wax without mixing it with anything else. Paraffin wax is a hard wax, and it’s excellent for the crackle technique. However, if you want to mix it, you can combine it with beeswax, using a minimum of 40% or even 50% beeswax. Answer to your second question: If the color is dark, you may not achieve good results. For example, if the fabric is dark blue and you apply wax on it, then paint or dip it in black dye, the design will be hard to see; it will appear as a self-print. It’s best to understand the intensity or hue of the color. If the fabric is dyed or painted in medium tones or lighter shades, the results will be more pronounced and visible. Hopefully, I have answered your questions. If you still have any confusion, please feel free to ask.
