  1. hi... i just began this new Candle Making business and before i begin to start selling products i want to make sure im selling the best product i can and build a good name and reputation... So i am having a couple problems... ill begin with the scent throw... it doesn't seem to have a strong scent if any scent... and ive been doing alot of research as to why. I chose the IGI 6006 because from what i researched it was the best for texture and scent throw. I was thinking maybe its because of the "wooden wick..." i chose the wooden wick because i figured it would work with the 8oz tin can... or maybe its because when i was adding the LAVENDER Essential Oil i kept heating it, then taking it off the stove, then putting it back on the stove trying to add the Essential oil at the right temperature... i put the Essential oil in at 165 degrees... i also put 3 oz of Essential oil in 2 1/2 lbs of wax which is a little less the 10% recommended... i then poured into container at 145 degrees... If i had to guess im thinking i lost the scent while heating and cooling trying to get it at right temperature to throw.. But i would LOVE some help and suggestions as to how and what i should do to get the best candles with the best scent throw and long lasting. Im dedicated and focused, reading and doing as much as i can to get through the process. I've givin it a week time to cure to test out the candle. But that takes a little to long for my likeing. So im now doing a couple Test and Trials recording the different results at which temperature i put in the oils and throw into the containers for the best result
