  1. 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

  2. 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.

  3. 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

    Hello 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.
