Dye Chips

Description

Looking for a splash of colour? These highly pigmented dye chips won’t disappoint.

Dye chips are highly concentrated blocks of colour used to dye waxes. For the truest colours, we recommend using our white beeswax. If you are using yellow beeswax, remember to take into account the yellow colouring of the wax. It will affect the final colour.

Dye chips may vary in colour among batches, so be sure to test!

When creating a new colour, we recommend adding small amounts of dye until you achieve the desired result.  We recommend starting with 1 chip per 500g of wax – you can always add more pigment. It’s also helpful to cool a sample of dyed wax completely to confirm the desired colour is achieved before making a whole batch (the wax changes colour as it cools). 

Take a look at the colour chart to see what can be achieved with each shade (please note these colours are based on paraffin wax – beeswax and other waxes may differ!)
