Encaustic Iron
- Description
The lightweight compact painting iron is the essential basic tool for hot wax encaustic painting. It maintains a steady low heat ideal for waxes and is easily converted from iron to mini hotplate or palette.
Easy to clean while warm and versatile for many effects including point work edge work lifting and smoothing. The encaustic art painting iron is the tool that makes encaustic artwork easily accessible to everyone.
The Encaustic Art Painting Iron is made to a high specification with a fine-quality thermostat which means that there is little or no noticeable difference in temperature at any time when the iron is in use. Poorer thermostats (usual on travel irons) will make the wax colours very liquid when at the hot part of the temperature cycle and may not even be hot enough to properly melt the wax colours at the low point in the heating cycle. Our Encaustic Painting Iron offers the control and predictability required for hot wax painting.
