Ironing Out Creativity: Crafting Wonders with the Encaustic Art Painting Iron– Melt, Mold, and Transform Masterpieces
The Encaustic Art Painting Iron is the key tool that melts and shapes the wax colours into creative artwork. High-quality temperature control. The Encaustic Art Painting Iron is a carefully made iron specifically for working with molten wax. It comes in different voltage and plug types for various locations around the world.
The small electric painting iron is central to our approach to this wax-melting art. A flexible white non-absorbent card, which remains clean in use, provides the material for beginners, on which the wax is applied. Wax is a liquid when warmed and a solid at ambient room temperature. Having heat as the solvent results in fast completion. Instead of drying, the wax just needs to cool, which literally takes seconds. The real magic is the ability to rework the wax art simply by reapplying the warm iron or other heated tools. Whether just small adjustments or a complete change! This is a unique “unfreezable paint”.

As a leisurely hobby, it provides a creative escape, allowing individuals of all ages to unleash their artistic expressions. For professionals, encaustic art serves as a dynamic medium, offering endless possibilities for experimentation and innovation. Regardless of your age or artistic journey, encaustic art stands as a versatile and accessible tool, inviting everyone to discover the joy and therapeutic benefits of this captivating craft.

Part of my tool belt!
Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2018
It is a great tool. I loved the ease in handling, I have a problem with my hand due to surgery, but this I worked pretty well. There are limits. Needed other tools for more intricate details.
