With the Liquid dyes handy we prepare some paraffin wax with 10 per cent stearin to a temperature of 260°F / 127°C. (This is hotter than boiling water so exercise extreme caution!). Pouring the hot wax over the centre of the chunks until it is level with the top of the mould. As well as helping to create the dramatic swirly effect, the chunks will help to cool the wax. We have also prepared a water bath ready to 'freeze' the design once the dyes have been added. (Don't pour at this temperature without chunks or you may well melt the mould!) |
