## Long description

The Caran d'Ache Neocolor Wax pastel set contains 40 permanent wax-oil pastels in assorted colours. Developed with over 60 years of experience, these Neocolor I sticks are designed for consistent application on a wide range of surfaces and for multiple artistic techniques. The pastels are water-resistant when dry, have creamy texture and high covering power, and are suitable for artists of all ages.
Advantages
These superior-quality wax-oil pastels offer a creamy laydown and strong opacity that make them economical to use. They provide excellent lightfastness and are formulated to be 100% usable with minimal waste. The sticks are water-resistant when dry and comply with CE EN71 and ASTM D4236 safety standards.
Suitable for
 Drawing and sketching on paper and cardboard
 Mixed-media work and layering techniques
 Sgraffito, scraping and stencilling effects
 Applying colour to non-porous surfaces such as glass, wood, leather and stone
When it may not be suitable
These are permanent wax-oil pastels that are water-resistant when dry; they are not water-soluble like watercolor crayons and may not be suitable if you require fully water-soluble media for washes or blending with water. Also, because they are wax-based, they can be affected by heat or prolonged exposure to high temperatures.
Key specifications
 Set contents: 40 wax-oil pastels

 Finish: water-resistant when dry
 Lightfastness: excellent

How to use
Apply the Neocolor I sticks directly to the chosen surface for strong, opaque colour. Blend by rubbing with fingers, cloth or a blending tool; scrape or sgraffito to reveal underlying layers. For use on non-porous surfaces, apply with firmer pressure or layer multiple passes. These pastels can be dissolved with turpentine for specific effects but are otherwise water-resistant when dry.
What to consider before purchase
 These are permanent wax-oil pastels, not fully water-soluble crayons.
 Wax-based media may soften or deform at high temperatures.
 Consider surface preparation for non-porous materials to ensure adhesion.
Usage recommendations
Store the set in a cool, dry place and keep caps or paper sleeves intact to protect the sticks; test techniques on a scrap surface first and use a fixative if you need added protection for finished works.
