It can be used as a topcoat, a base coat, or it can be used to create a textured surface. It can even be added to your wax paints to increase transparency for glazing techniques.

XD Wax Medium gets it's name from the extra damar used to make it. A higher content of damar resin than the original, gives it a thicker consistency when liquified. It also has a sticky tack while drying for easy texture build up and will stay pliable for a longer time.
Once cooled however, it is resistant to surface alterations from scraping or incising and offers a hard film. It can be used as a base coat, wax paint extender for glazing, and especially useful as a topcoat.
