Hi! Thank you so much for sharing your process. I have four more pounds of it sitting here so I will give that a try. Right now I am working with 6006 and doing my best to learn how it behaves... I had to pick a wax and just commit. Trying too many things at once gets overwhelming. So far I am liking the 6006 especially now that we are getting acquainted! How are you liking the SB1000 in terms of hot throw and wicking?

Thank you so much, TallTayl! Yea, it feels super plasticky. I am shocked that this is described as a single pour container wax... I much prefer the other waxes I have worked with but I may just go ahead and try that second pour to see what happens. I appreciate your feedback.

Hi all! I began my candle making journey last month and I am now a woman obsessed. I have worked with C3, 464, IGI 6006 and PB 600. I like the 464 with ECO and HTP wicks and made a dozen successful candles with it BUT I prefer the look and hot throw of the 6006 and 600. If I had to play favorites, I’d say 600 because I am finding it easier to wick and a nice happy medium. So, of course, I got curious and wanted to try a soy blend from General Wax in California because I can pick it up in person and avoid the shipping fees from Flaming Candle. Well, I picked up 8 lbs of their SB1000 yesterday.
