Chrysanthos Wax Protect is a paintable water-based wax emulsion used for selective decoration. It works by repelling underglaze or glaze colours that are applied over it (ie. the wax covers those areas not to be decorated). The wax is then fired off.

Wax Protect is useful for creating fine detail due to its brushability.

Before application, the brush should be moistened thoroughly with liquid soap and any excess squeezed out. The brush is then loaded with Wax Protect and applied to greenware or bisque. Allow it to dry thoroughly before applying colour or glaze. Any excess should be dabbed off colour or glaze using a barely damp sponge, before firing to appropriate temperatures.
