I just encountered this rippled surface on wax with some wax melts at JoAnn's craft store. I guess this is what you are referring to?

It is safe to use the "Suppliers By State List" that is from this site.

Yes, this works great and is such a time saver plus a supplies saver too. One thing I want to point out, and unfortunately I had made this mistake, you must make sure you insert the tabless wick in the upright position or the correct position or you risk getting weird wick test results. Reason being, some wicks are directional and some wicks are not. If a wick is directional then it was designed for the wax to travel in only one direction so don't accidentally insert the tabless wick upside down. I just always assume a wick is directional and insert it right end up so I don't have any issues. I skip the step of using the heat gun, once I light the wick the melted wax rapidly fills in what little gap there was.
