About the CD Series
CD (Stabilo) wick is a flat braided cotton wick with paper threads woven into the cotton. The reinforced construction of the wick is designed to ensure a consistent burn with higher fragrance loads, especially with softer, more viscous natural waxes. The superior rigidity of CD wick allows the wick to stand up straighter for easier pours and keeps the wick upright in a deep melt pool. Note: Any carbon buildup should be removed once the wick is extinguished. CD wicks are lead and zinc free.

I use the CD series for all my 3-wick glass tumblers. I use a high fragrance load of 10%FO in IGI 6006. Most of my candles have a high liquid dye load as well, above 10 drops/lb. The CD10 wicks burn great, highly fragrant and are slow-burning. My pours are 17 ounces and I get around 50-60 hours per triple wicked candle.
Excellent wick, I use it for three-wick candles. My candles are 17.5 ounces and I get over 60 hours of burn time using these wicks. At first, the melt pool will develop slowly but the fragrance through is great, I can smell it thought my entire 2,800 sqf house.
I used the wick guide to help me find the proper wicks for my candles, and after testing CDs and ECOs, CDs, (CD10 to be exact) for my 8oz candle, worked the best for me! I had to wick down from the initial recommendation, and doing so provided the best burn time, melt pool, and scent throw for my 464 based candles. Yes there is some mushrooming after burning for a while, but I've learned that as long as I keep my wicks trimmed it does not effect my candle burn. ECOs did not put out enough HT for me, so I'm sticking with CDs!!
I use Golden Wax 464 & pour in 8 oz mason jars. I initially purchased the ECO 10 6" wicks but then decided to give the CD 10 6" wicks a try after watching a video on your website suggesting these for use with 464 wax. I found the CD wicks to have much more frequent occurrences of the black "mushroom shape" and I don't know if it's possible, but I feel like my candle burns so much faster. I think I'll go back to the ECO series.
