TxSioux when I 1st started to heat my containers I pit the wix in secured with the hot glue gun method. I never had a problem with them coming loose but I did have the wax that was on the wicks drip off. So I then carefully wicked them after I heated them.

with the C-3 wax and igi 4627 I did heat the containers. Put them in the oven on the lowest setting and then when I was ready to pour took one out and poured. Now tonight I am trying new wax (again) ecosoya and I did not pre heat my jars and the wax adhered just fine to the jars and is looking really nice. One less step for me to do lol.
I say try one both ways and see what works best for you and what one you like

does anyone know how dirty comfort blend actually burns. We just had our furnance and duct work cleaned so I know for me it is not the duct work. But the film and haze on my windows and walls is so gross and disguisting. Granted yes I make and burn the candles in my house but in the short time we have lived here, all the new paint and ect is now gross
-
humph I wonder..good question, I burn and make my candles in the same place so I don't know the answer but I have noticed my windows and walls are gross...I am in the process of changing waxes due to this and shipping.
-

-

When I was using C-3 I had to do a top off pour and also when the 1st pour was almost set poke sink holes. I also heated the jars to help the wax stick to the jars. I can't remember my pour temp since I havn't used it in awhile but do remember that even though it says one pour it wasn't.

Votive Mold Release Help
in Vegetable Wax & Beeswax Candle Making
Posted
when I 1st did the votives I had the same problem...not a one came out. I ended up melting them back down and the using pam spray instead of the mold release and it popped out just geat. Don't know if it was becuase the mold now already had the wax oils on it or because of the pam spray lol
I am sure someone on here has some better advice for you though;)
