  1. Thank you for the feedback. I do have to test a lot more. I used a cd8 from Candle Science if not mistaken, which Is supposed to work well for that jar and wax? Unsure if zink works better for that wax. I am changing to igi 6006 wax now, so will test with eco wicks. I got some different jars also 8 oz and 18 Mason jars. Hope that solves some of my issues. Also I tried 464 soy but very little hot throw. Made 30 plus candles and you have to be within a few feet to get a good hot throw or very small room. Very little shooting in that jar. Test test test. Trying to find a good wax thst will have less issues.
  2. So I made an 8 oz Mason jar candle using joy wax from NG. I auded pink sugar cookies from Candle Science as the fragrance oil. I used the temps posted on NG to add fo, and to pur. Waiting a week to test. Also sold 2 to my neighbor. Cold throw was good. Hot throw was excellent. I stood there while my neighbor burned the candle and scent was awesome. I used mine in my bedroom which is pretty big. Again scent was awesome. Here comes the issue. As the candle gets used up, there is so much soot, it blackened the glass. I stopped using mine. Neighbor called me today and tells me I have to give you some feedback on your candle. It almost caught my house in fire. I walked over and got the candle. So he burns them for hours on end. Unsure if he was burning it were there is a draft or not. Then I look at the candle from the side and see that he had about 1/4 of wax left. I show him the care instructions underneath the candle and advise him to not leave the candle unattended, ever. Also to discontinue to use the candle when there is only 1/4 left. There was melted wax (pool) of more than 1/4 but I stuck my finder and side of candle shows little left. So whet went wrong? Also got insurance today. Who would be responsible if his place catches on fire? Please help. Thanks
