flickering palm

I use starburst palm wax from Lonestar. The reason for my questions is because I'm having trouble getting the candles to release from the molds. I've used mold release, usually to no avail. It's especially hard to remove the finished candle from the square aluminum molds. I think I'll try adding the 2% stearic and see if that helps. Thanks everyone for your help!

I was looking on candlewic.com and noticed there are different kinds of stearic acid. I currently have both vybar and stearic acid, but have not used them with palm wax. Two questions: 1. Am I able to use vybar and/or stearic acid with palm wax? 2. What is the difference with the different kinds of stearic acid? Thanks for any help!

Hi! I make candles out of starburst palm pillar wax and am having difficulty getting the wax off my kitchen floor. Having read a few posts on this topic, I understand Goo Gone should do the job, however my floor is a fake/plastic-style wood with grooves in it. I am having difficulty getting the wax out of the grooves. If anyone has some suggestions as to what I can do to clean this up, I would appreciate it!
