What is Waxed Exposed Chiseled Copper in Minecraft?
A waxed exposed chiseled copper block is a version of the chiseled copper block that has started to turn green but will not age any further. It has the same intricate, flower like design, but with a pale, greenish orange color. The main purpose of waxing an exposed chiseled copper block is to permanently preserve this specific stage of oxidation. Regular copper will continue to turn greener over time, but a waxed block will stay in this lightly weathered state forever. This is perfect for builders who want a slightly aged, antique look for their copper details without it becoming fully green.
How to get Waxed Exposed Chiseled Copper in Minecraft
You can only get a waxed exposed chiseled copper block by crafting it or by waxing a block in the world. To craft it, you will need one exposed chiseled copper block and one honeycomb. To get an exposed chiseled copper block, you must first let a regular chiseled copper block sit out in the open air until it reaches the first stage of oxidation. Then, you can combine it with a honeycomb in a crafting grid. The easier way is to place a regular chiseled copper block and wait for it to turn the right color. Once it looks lightly green, just right click on it with a honeycomb to wax it and lock in that color.
How to use Waxed Exposed Chiseled Copper in Minecraft
The main use for a waxed exposed chiseled copper block is for building and decoration. Its detailed pattern and lightly aged color are great for creating antique looking floors, accent walls, or for adding a warm, weathered detail to a build. Because it is waxed, it will never oxidize further, so you can be sure that your build will always have that perfect, slightly aged look. If you ever change your mind and want the block to continue aging or to clean it, you can remove the wax. To do this, simply right click on the waxed block with an axe. The wax will be scraped off, and the block will be free to change again.
