  1. I am using the combo and love it with zinc. I use 60 of classic and 49 of the 4630. It does need two or more pours but excellent throw and wicking hang been an issue
  2. 2 51s in a 3 inch (approx) container?? Means I've been terribly under wicking. I gave up on zinc but maybe I was doing something wrong. Would you double wick the same with Chandlers technique? Maybe I need to revisit
  3. Peak of course lol . They are the best
  4. Ok boogie lol. I'm sold just ordered a 2lb bag. Gonna see what happens. After your helpful advise today I trust your judgement lol. Cause this LX wicks is wonderful. My glad looks like I ran it through the dishwasher lol
  5. How did the texture come out if you don't mind me asking. Creamy, opaque? Harder?
  6. Ok thanks. So it isn't just me. Glad to hear that your experience is similar
  7. Hey there again. Are you still using the LX wicks with this blend?
  8. Hey boogie. I tried the 18 and still the flame seems to struggle. 21 in there now and little better. I can't believe I'm going all the way to 24 smh. The flame is steady but so tiny.
  9. Hey There..I am having all kind of wicking issues and insecurities. Today I wicked a 1lb loaf pan to make a banana nut loaf bread candle. Im usin 4627 and put 3 LX 12 in it. Any suggestions. My issue is that my toppings for most of my desert candles are made of IGI 6006. Although the LX may be sufficent for the comfort blend the para soy struggles with it...Ugh...Getting rather expensive and frustrating Any help is appreciated..
  10. Hey Boogie...what size LX are you using for the 3 inch container? I have a LX 16 in a 2.75 inch and its not burning hot enough
  11. You right..and i think i may have to go up a wick size Im using a straight edge jar 9oz and a LX 16 wick. I used 1oz pp. Its not getting hot enough and the pool is taking a while to go across the container. Flame is nice though so im a little concerned with that though. Go up in size will probably give me a larger flame
  12. I recieved my wicks yesterday along with a new fragrance from candle science. I rewicked a previous candle and I burned it ( I know I should let it cure but I was in a bit of a jam) and my God it was perfect. The rewicked candle was made with igi 6006. Then I made 4 new candles. A stragiht edged 90z jar wicked with the LX16 using the Comfort blend and candle science Rasberry Macroon. No cold throw no Hot throw but perfect flame. UGH..So now Im thinking should I change wax, should I change fragrance? That IGI 6006 and the peppermint eucalyptus was pure heaven...Im here at work just thinking about getting back to my presto pot and trying some other avenues. I have an event on the 4th and now I decide to experiment..Smart huh? smh
  13. . Just ordered them as well. Love the comfort blend. Need a wick I love as well!
  14. I am new to the forum and so glad I came across this thread. I too use and love 4627 but have difficulty wicking. Spoke with candle science regarding their recommendation of THE LX SERIES Glad to see you found success. I will be leaving the wild flames of Eco behind. Thanks for sharing!
