This product has been discontinued due to low sales. For a paraffin container wax, we recommend trying IGI 4630.

Paraffin Container Wax (MP-117) is a high-performance, single-pour container paraffin wax that results in creamy, semi-gloss candles. Previously reserved for large manufacturing companies, we’re excited to bring this unique, fully refined paraffin wax to the handcrafted market. Featuring strong scent throw and minimal shrinkage, MP-117 works beautifully on its own without additives or blended with other waxes.

Candle Maker's Notes:
Paraffin waxes tend to have darker soot over soy when burning. If you're experiencing excessive soot, we recommend testing different wick sizes, or double wicking in larger containers (3.3"/8.4 cm diameter or larger). Additionally, too much fragrance oil can also cause sooting depending on the fragrance oil. We’ve found that reducing fragrance load to 6% is plenty strong for most fragrances and helps to minimize sooting.

PLEASE DONT DISCONTINUE

Me and my customers LOVE this wax and LOVE that it isn't soy. I have tested other waxes, including IGI 4630 and they DO NOT compare. Please.

This is my best-performing wax and the best I have used. I would ask you to reconsider your decision based on other feedback as well and I believe if more people knew about this wax, it would get a lot more sales. Thank you for your consideration!

Best Wax!

Please do not get rid of this wax. I finally tried paraffin and blends this year after using only soy for years. And wow was I blown away by this wax. So easy to use. And the hot throw is the best I have ever achieved.
