Best Answer

You basically work with unbleached muslin and put wax on it. You then dye it. The wax prevents the parts that you cover from being dyed. You then cover the parts you don't want dyed another color (after it has dried) and submerse it. This seems like a multiple part process, and very time consuming.

How many types of batik are there?

so many... batik is differentiated by the location where it came from, some places in Indonesia that produce batik such as : Cirebon, Solo, Garut, Madura. All of those places are located in Java. So, for the batik produced in solo we called it batik Solo, etc. Each place has their own batik pattern as their signature, so just by looking at the pattern we can tell where the batik came from.
