Neat finishing wax for paper art
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!

It works and it's worth it.
This stuff is super easy to use. I just put on some gloves and use a towel to pick up a little of the wax and then I just rub it over the watercolor art piece. I let it air dry for a couple minutes or sometimes overnight just cause. That's it. It seals it. Water will bead up on the surface wherever you put the wax. The product is a soft texture. It does have a smell so you need to use it in a well ventalated area. One jar will last a while but I would definitely buy this again to protect my watercolor pieces of art.

Works pretty good
I like using this on my watercolor paintings that are made into bookmarks.There are some people saying in Facebook groups, watercolor artist, saying that the longevity of a painting is lessened with something like this on it. I don’t know whether that’s true or not. Like I said, I use it mostly on bookmarks. I’m not thinking a bookmark would last any longer than 20 years anyway. Plus, it should most likely be in a book. Just trying to prevent it from accidentally getting water on it and ruining it.

Good for protecting small watercolor projects.
I’m using this to put a protective layer over small watercolor projects such as book marks and greeting cards. I use my palette knife to smooth out a bit on to the paper, and then buff it in with a tissue. I don’t notice any odor. Leaves a faint wax sheen, not greasy. Darkens the paint a TINY BIT.
