    It may have been my post about the wooden sticks. Just my experience after using them for about 3 months. I bought them at WallyWorld and thought they would be a great way to hold my wicks (pinched with a clothes pin.) Then I realized they made good stir sticks too...but later noticed very very small bubbles coming from the stick when I put it in my hot wax. Put the sticks on a hot plate and cooked them, turning until they had been warmed about an hour. put a few back in hot wax NO BUBBLES...so decided it was moisture and stopped using them for stirring...still great to hold wicks!! For what it's worth. Mr. G

    Shala, Watch out with the "Wooden skewers" ! I used wooden popsickle type sticks once and found that they carried water bubbles into my wax. Very tiny but they can cause damage. Mr. G

    I would like to know what is the best oil to use for making a potpourri refesher. How much F.O. would you use in the base oil? Is water base F.O. better than oil base for this pupose? Thank You! Mr. G

    I have two accounts that request private labels. I charge $10.00 setup fee..if they use the same label as we do. No other charge if all is same. If not we quote after setup fee as per label/sheet. I look at it as label for label or extra charge for different size, color etc. One account does not want any reference to my name. Other one approved of caution label with name.

    Walmart Heart.... Looks great, know it's been done..but can not make it burn right (of course). I use 4630 (1945) with 100% soy @10 %, three LX18, 4 hour burn gets the sides..but. If I use more soy there is more hangup. The only reason the sides clean up is the mushrooms. Smokes bad on startup. Any suggestions.....or just trash it? Thank you all, Mr G
  16. Mr. G
    Three questions for you..please... 1- What do you find to be the best wick, not size, but type for 100% soy? 2- What additives would you suggest? 3- What is the largest MP with one wick that you can achieve ? Thanks, Mr G
