Conventional wax crayons are also well-suited for younger children's first attempts at painting because they are easy to handle and already release color onto the paper even with little pressure. This means that even children with not yet well-developed motor skills can quickly achieve success and thus enjoy painting. The colors are also intense, even on dark paper.
In addition, there are multi-talented wax-based crayons such as the STABILO woody 3 in 1, which can also be used in a variety of other ways:
- it paints on window panes, lunch boxes, mirrors, CDs and blackboards
- it can be easily wiped off glass surfaces.
- it can be painted with water and the colors can be rubbed together
- it is also suitable for scratching techniques, frottage and also for stencil techniques
- the lead has eight times as much color as a normal crayon, which makes for extra-long painting fun
- its robust 10 mm lead withstands even the wildest children's rooms.
This depends very much on the pen, the color used and the surface affected.
With the STABILO woody 3 in 1, the colors can be removed from glass, for example, quite easily with a damp cloth. On clothing, this becomes more difficult depending on the fabric. Here you can first try to dab off the color with a damp microfiber cloth until the fabric no longer gives off any color. Then wash at the temperature specified for the fabric. It may be possible to pre-treat the stain with bile soap or special stain sprays. However, not all fabrics are suitable for this and traces may remain.
Basically, the colors erica and violet are worse to remove than others.
