Candle (lightcoloured, with a minimum diameter of 6 cm)

Tips and Tricks

We recommend using light candles with a minimum diameter of 6 cm.
Only laser printing works.
Writing must be printed back-to-front.
The result is even more superb with the use of contrasting images.
With the Marabu candle liner, you can make candles even more unique with individual decoration.

How it is done:

Print the photo back-to-front on a laser printer
Create the photo back-to-front using a laser printer. Paint the clean and dry candle as well as the surface of the printout fully. Do not leave out any areas.
Place the printout with the printed image on the candle and smooth down with a scraper or finger. Remove any excess medium straight away. Do not spread the medium over the paper applied. Drying time at least 12 hours.
Moisten the printout with a sponge or hold the candle directly under water. Carefully rub off the paper with your finger or with a sponge. Repeat the process until all paper layers have been removed.
Coat with candle varnish to maintain a flame-retardant protective wax layer and to remove paper fibre residues.
