  1. Hi guys, I was getting ready to make a big order from the flaming candle for wax and fragrances, but seems their IGI 6006 is out of stock!! T_T Do you guys think I can trust candle science wax IGI6006? I only tried their GB 464 and didn't work for me very well, so now I am kinda scared.... What do you think?
  2. OOh that makes so much sense!! Thank you ❤️
  3. even on your testing? also, seems that the HT is not working what it could be?? everything was perfect..
  4. ooh ok. Yes I will try that and let you know. So I was thinking that a they had some sink hole but I didn't fix them because they were tester, do you think that's what caused it? Also, I used a heat gun before I wicked the jar and poured the wax... Thank you!!
  5. Hi Tall!! I have a question, I used the CDN 4 and it worked fine with my jar from CS, now I had to switch jars since they are always out of stock and for some reason when I tried with half jar for the testing it worked out great, then I tried the full jar and the wick keep curving and falling into the wax. What it can be? Am i cutting it too short? Both candles have the CDN.4 and secured on the bottom. I don't know why this is happening
  6. I have the exact amount of wax and Fo that I am using for each candle, and it's exactly 6.8 oz to get at the point that I want. So do you think I should put 7 oz? I am just talking about the label. Also, this was directly for you, which kind of wick CDN are exactly? cotton? i wanst able to find it
  7. Hey guy, so I am working on the label of my candles, I have a question, my candles are 6.8 oz, should I just put 7oz? I just want to make sure that my customers knows the right weight and don't have problems. Also, my jar is supposed to have a capacity of 5.8 but my wax on it to fill at the line is 6.8 oz. What should I do?
  8. Thank you so much! Yes I was thinking about getting an heat gun and extra pitchers to make the process easier. I just need to start making some moeny back..T_T
  9. hey guys, finally I am able to start making my candles! So I have a few questions for you: - How do you deal with sink hole in 6006? Do you pour a little bit wax when the candle is ready?and if you do so do you add just plain melt wax or you add fragrance?( and how do you work around the quantity if you do so?) -are you guys using Presto Pot? I was watching a video where they were saying to re heat the pitcher before pouring and mesuring the wax, do you do that? I used the presto pot yesterday ( only becasue I had it already ) and all the process it was a little bit frustrated to be honest with you. SO now I have more concerned about on how to save money about bills ( buying a separated electric stove and keep doing double boil or using the presto pot). Thank you!!
  10. i have a question about my ended product. I have the jar from CS ( medium straight jar) and on their page said it can hold 5.8 oz on wax, but I have my jar with 6.8oz final product. How is that possible? I fill it at line. I tried with their formula and their measurement but it doesn't fill the jar. Is that normal?
  11. yes, I will definitely try the other sizes with other fragrances, I am trying to get done at least 3/4 fragrances so I can make them and start getting customers! Thank you so much for your advice! In an other note, I think Aztec lost my business. I have been waiting for more than 2 weeks for their customers support to help out with the issues I had and still nothing. I am so disappointed on them.
  12. @TallTayl I got the CDN from SixteenSeventeen and for the FIRST time I had a good/decent HT with CDN4!!! Thank you so much!! Now I am testing CDN 4 with other fragrances and hopefully it will work great as well!! I got CDN 5 &6 but it doesn't seems work well with them!
  13. Yes I am ordering different size of wick series 700 to have them home and see actually which one could be a better pick for this jar. I did a 7% today with Eucaliptus & clean cotton from Aztec, let's see!! Thank you I will try your combination as welL!
  14. You are right! I wanted to buy an electric one to be ore specific.I will try to mix the fragrance higher than 190 and see. I made 2 testing candle with the CS formula but it didn't feel the jar, so If I can smell it this way I will try to use that formula for the numbers that I got before. Thank you!
