Cadence Wax Paints are high-quality, water-based paints designed for decorating paraffin candles, soaps, and other waxy or smooth surfaces. With their creamy texture and odorless formula, they're perfect for creative DIY projects and personalized gifts.

Opaque Wax Paint – Rich Coverage and Vibrant Color

The opaque version delivers strong, full-coverage color. It's ideal for designs where bold, solid tones are needed. Easy to apply with a brush or sponge, this paint adheres well to paraffin wax. Not recommended for soy wax surfaces.

Metallic Wax Paint – Soft Shine and Elegant Finish

The metallic version adds shimmer and elegance to your pieces. It works beautifully with stencils and sponge dabbing techniques. Two coats are recommended for best results. After drying, the metallic sheen remains vibrant and stable.
