I use the 4 oz. size tin with coconut wax and a little beeswax mixed in for hardness, Hearts & Crafts cotton wicks (they don't give a size, but they work perfectly), and a pine scent that is extremely popular. I have had no problems with discoloration of the inside of the tin. For labeling, I use a round, clear/transparent 1.25" round label (with black lettering) on the lid. It looks really good, I think! These are the best designed candle tins I've seen. My only complaints would be that they dent a bit easily and - when I add the shipping to the product price - they are more expensive per vessel than my 8 oz. canning jars with black lids, which is what I mainly use. I will order a ton of these for the holidays.

So far, I love the look and size. However, I was wondering if they get hot being so small?

I love these. I sell these in packs of 3. I use the cd 8 or cd6 or eco 4 depending on the fragrance. I did have a heavy vanilla load at 10% in 464 and the bottom did rust or turn brown. As long as I stay under 8% with vanilla its ok. I've never gotten a complaint.

I love these candle tins. However, some of mine arrived with dents and/or scratches on them.

To all the friends I've seen asking about label sizing - I use a 2.5inch round label for all my tins. This size goes all the way to the edge of the 4oz tins and goes to the edge of the raised portion on 6oz tins. If you want a label that fits to the edge of the raised portion of the 4oz tin, I'd recommend a 2inch round label 😁 if you are making labels for the sides, check out the dimensions listed and that should tell you the height so you can plan accordingly. Happy chandeling!

Side note: I use only CS tins even though they are more expensive just for the raised feet feature! My customers appreciate it. I've had requests for 16oz candles, but I can't find any with the raised feet. Please consider adding 16oz tins to the collection 😁
