Hi yes I have the right wicks everything. I think it could be my pouring maybe. I have tried the candles without vybar and they do not let off enough cold throw sadly. I will deffo give the mixed wax a try without vybar as everything else was pretty much mastered just this white spots deep inside the candle. I have been following manufacturers guidelines on temp but will try pour a little cooler than usual.
Thank you guys

would you be able to pour a very thin new top on them?
Something with the difference in temp from the main candle and heat gunned top is causing uneven crystallization of your wax.

Thank you so much for your advice. I will deffo give all the examples you gave a shot. I suppose it is a science.
I will order the mixed wax and different wicks.
Thank you again. I suppose we need a liss to learn. Will update results xxx

Hi thank you so much for your reply. On the suppliers website it says parafin container wax. And then that number. But I am a newbie so you're probably right.
I am going to order the mixed blend wax palm oil and part parafin and also stop using dye do you think this could help x
Thank you
The vybar helps as I promote the strong scent throw in my candles.

10% fragrance oil ****

Hey guys thank you so much I do use vybar but only 2%
I only use 10% the wax can hold 12%
I mix for about 1 min fragrance and colour.
I found a new blend wax part parafin part palm wax the natural vegetable fat? Do you think this could help. I pour at around 175f.i heat the tins and I let the top seal then I trim the wicks to put on lids and store.
I hope this is clearer many thanks xx

I need help urgently
Today, 07:15 PMHello there. My name is jade. I am quite new to candle making. I have pretty much mastered the craft, however I really really would appreciate some help. My candles are developing horrible white chunks and I can not seem to get rid. I go over the candles with the heat gun and store them thinking yes I won. But when I go back to them even a couple of hours later the same thing has occurred. I have googled like crazy it's not air bubbles I'd guess it's a form of frosting but I am only using little metal tins. Please help me as I have orders coming through but cannot possibly send these off. I have attached a picture you may need to zoom into selected candles.
