  1. Thank you Ill try it. Thank you ill try getting a bunch of samples. I got like well.. 150 ounces.. mainly because thats what the store told me would work for me and ive got so many molds to try. It wont go to waste, ill still make tarts too so its fine but i will try different paraffin
  2. Ok so from a little research around the web Ive found that paraffin wax is like not good at all for silicone molds? Do you have any idea about what wax should I use? Im not sure what the type is the lady at the store told me "its from Germany and 7931 is the number its labeled". and the wicks are great (dont know what type ill have to look it up) they are not the problem at all, right now im just testing the wax. solid wax dyes, they are great. The same thing happend without using any color so its not that.. just the wax type. Ill try adding stearin today and maybe that could help
  3. Thank you ill try it! do you know of anything i can do with the left overs? I heard about adding stearin to paraffin to solve it, do you know anything about it? Thank you! Its just this one with lines and not as white as the other so it’s weird..
  4. As you can see from my other replies I know its paraffin wax and dont know what kind. I am using a thermometer and the dye is wax dye. I never said I had a problem with candles sticking to the silicone Im just looking for a way to make them look normal right now..
  5. Thats the thing i saw so many people using this wax and nothing went wrong.. the whole process is going exactly like the tutorials ive seem until the point of the final product Some of them just look dry, or have lines, some of them are almost cover with white
  6. Never lubed them.. but they are not sticking to the silicone.. just coming out frosted. No idea unfortunately. Its a craft store just for candles.
  7. paraffin wax.. it happens with or without color, with or without scent..
  8. Hello! Im just strating to make paraffin candles with silicone moulds and Im always getting frosted candles. I tried pouring at 135, 165, 155 and it doesnt make a difference. What am I doing wrong?
