Rebeccca Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I am trying to find a substitute for IGI 416. Any recommendations? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I've never heard of IGI 416. Most of IGI waxes are paraffin so they wouldn't be too similar to any soy waxes. Can you elaborate or give a link to the 416, so we can read up on it and give our opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nursenancy Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 I remember 416 as being a soy pillar/votive wax. I think it is a GB wax, though - not IGI. Ecosoya PB is probably the closest thing to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest OldGlory Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Why do you want to get away from 416? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebeccca Posted November 29, 2015 Author Share Posted November 29, 2015 Why do you want to get away from 416?It's a supply issue...fewer suppliers carry 416...and the shipping to me is on the higher side to me on the east coast from these suppliers, unfortunately.

I will get some to test now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
