I was recently researching ingredients found in many colored pencils and came across paraffin. This got me thinking…can you blend colored pencils with it? So I decided to give it a try! Watch me compare several different solvents and mediums to paraffin oil to see which one is the best at blending colored pencils. I compare it to Odorless Mineral Spirits, Rubbing Alcohol, Petroleum Jelly and Baby Oil.
