I like it just fine now. But until I added 7% Stearic and 1% Vybar, I had failure after failure. I got no throw whatsoever and had blowouts and collapses of all sorts. Some were quite dramatic! At 6% fragrance load, I couldn't detect any fragrance even with the candle right under my nose. Since I've started using the additives and sticking with those percentages, I haven't had a single blowout and they also have some throw now.
I received this wax yesterday didn’t realize I had to chisel it to break it but it was fun!!!imade large floating candles for a center piece! I tested the burn this morning so far 2 hours! I’m happy with that! The only complaint I can’t smell the scent I used the cold throw was not good and the hot throw isn’t either? I used 1/2 ounce of fragrance to 1/2 pound of wax with no dye!! Any suggestions for me?
I'm very new to candle making and I tried to use this was for tarts, I poured at 180 in clamshells moods and the wax kinda sunk in the centre of each individual mold. Can anyone explain to me why this may have happened?
A little frustrated plz help
I prefer it over any kind so far. I've used it for pillar and votive candles. It's great to work with, especially if you get really artsy with your candles. Holds color and scent really well. This is my go-to wax.
I went with 4625 after reading reviews and wax forums. I'm glad I did! This wax is very hard, so I used a chisel and hammer. I break the wax up and store it in a trash bag. I use this for my tart blend and I get nice results.
This had an amazing throw to it. Hot is great cold is light but still good. Holds color amazingly. You will need to repour at least once, the wax sags in the middle at the wick, but it's repours seamlessly.
I love this wax! It's so great to work with! My candles come out beautiful every single time! My pillars are creamy and smooth looking. The candles come out of the molds perfectly every time (I always use a little of their mold release but I'm sure these would come out without it just as easily) and the cold AND hot throw is AMAZING!
This wax is wonderful for pillar candles. It produces smooth candles(when used correctly and poured at the right temp)... No flaking/frosting. Great throw, both hot and cold!
