This formulation maintains workability across fusing layers while providing the structural integrity that encaustic painting demands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe medium accepts pigments readily, whether you're mixing your own colors or extending commercial encaustic paints. Layers fuse cleanly when reheated, building depth without the separation issues that occur with inconsistent wax blends. Once cooled, the surface polishes to a genuine gloss, not the dull sheen of untreated beeswax, but the luminous finish that gives encaustic work its characteristic depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeat your palette, brush, or sculpting tools to working temperature and apply the molten medium directly. It cools quickly, allowing you to build texture and dimension through successive layers. The damar content prevents the heat damage and surface degradation that pure beeswax suffers during reworking, giving you freedom to fuse and manipulate without compromising previous layers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jacquard","offers":[{"title":"1 lb.","offer_id":47973584732389,"sku":"85379","price":29.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s85379.jpg?v=1761683937","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/jacquard-encaustic-medium","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
