Waxxy Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Hi everyone! I've been a long time "lurker" and I have truly enjoyed reading everything and learning from all of you! I recently started experimenting with 402 wax. There are not many threads on here talking about it! From my testing, I have to wait until the slushy stage to pour in order to get a smooth top. I did read on a supplier's site that they have had success pouring between 140 and 150 degrees. Has anyone had success with this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faerywren Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I'm not familiar with this wax. Who is the supplier? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waxxy Posted July 11, 2017 Author Share Posted July 11, 2017 Golden Brands is the manufacturer and there are a couple suppliers, Lonestar is where I got mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faerywren Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I use a custom parasoy blend using 464, but don't know this wax. Maybe someone else will chime in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waxxy Posted July 11, 2017 Author Share Posted July 11, 2017 Ok. Thanks! I would like to stick to 100% soy if I can, and based on the lack of info that I've been able to find, this is not a very popular wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Wax has two pure soy waxes that contain no additives and are both FDA approved and Kosher-certified. They blend well with beeswax, paraffin, slack wax, and microcrystalline waxes. GW402: Has a lower melt point which helps with the burn and gives better glass adhesion producing less wet spots. Pour Temp: 90-100 I Melt Point: 115-120 I FO Load: 6%-8% Source Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
