TallTayl, you mention 6% and I am wondering if the throw will still be as strong without going higher? I am trying to make aromatherapy candles that have maximum scent and if I can accomplish the same thing with 6% I will do it. I am going to order a sample set of HTP so that I may find the best one. Thanks in advance for advice! I look forward to being a member here. We just ordered some zinc core samples because IGI recommends them, but we were hoping to start production this week, but unfortunately we're delayed because of the wick issues.ĭoes anyone have any advice or recommendations? We do like the LX wicks because they seem to not smoke or jump as much, but the latest LX we tried was the 30 and it works great at first, then starts jumping and sooting.
When it seems as though its burning right, we can look into the candle and see the tab on the bottom which means its burning too hot, correct? We have tried everything and nothing is working the way we have read that it should.įragrance is 10%, and we have tried CD and LX, and we haven't been able to get a test burn to consume almost the entire top of the candle. Unfortunately we have been striking out with wicks. We are using tins and the ones we like are 3" wide, by 2" tall. We prefer the 4627, but they don't offer it in 10 pound slabs and we wanted to do each scent in batches of 10 pounds to try and streamline the process. We have been doing an lot of testing and have decided on IGI 4630 or 4627 wax. We are typically a soap company, but we promised our customers we would have a small line of candles out before the holidays and we are determined to deliver. Hi everyone! I have been a lurker here on the forum for months and have been using lots of advice to help us begin our candle adventure.
