  1. Hi I've attempted to make 4 round candles a few times now however I always seem to get bubbles appearing. (Please see picture) I use pillar wax and it recommended pouring at 65° and leaving at least 8 hrs. Maybe I should use a different wax? I've bought a candle wax melting pot. I've asked the mould maker to deepen the image as there not too visible. Tips I heard so far..... >I've heard tips using hairdryer to heat moulds up before pouring. >Tapping or having it on vibrating stand >Using steel moulds instead of silicone >Pour slow and at a higher temp >When poured keep it in a pan of hot water so keeps wax hot longer helping bubbles to release rise up. >Put on a speaker on them or vibrating plate whilst setting. >I Need my Candles to be at a quality I can sell. I've included pics please see and any help will be very very very much appreciated. I'm now beggining to think it's either a temperature issue and do it higher each time or my main concern is its the 3D print fine groove lines in the silicone mould itself. I've Included a picture of how I want them to look. Please any help I'd be very appreciated 🙏 💕
  2. Hi I recently bought a 3d mould printed silicone for candle making however when I take them out there are always air bubbles in. Do you think it's because of the 3D grooves that are in the mould (like viynl grooves) or do you think it's something else? I'm using pillar wax Maybe an SLA would work better? Any help be much appreciated 🙏
