tweek

I have never tried CBL 130 maybe that will help.

Bittercreek has them.

Tvg does not sell just the lids as far as I know.

No, no palm and I am doing everything the same as I always have. I guess it is a variation but I have called all over and no one has a different lot number.

Nope did not overheat the wax and the Fo is brand spankin new and it is from NG.

The wax before I even melt it it has a slight oder.

Weird?

But hey it is an IGI product so who the hell knows, every batch varies with them (as all wax co's) maybe they just produce more batches and that is why we see constant changes.... but man I never had a tart that smells like burning crayons.

These people are gonna make me pull my project outta my back pocket!

I love Daystar and snowtop.

No, I have 7. I never had an issue with any of them. 3 tealight . 2 lang and hello they suck ,the wattage is just too freaking low so they never really get hot enough to throw but you can't beat how cute they are and 2 hot plate ones from tartburners.com

Every one smells like crayons man!

So now my question is how the heck am I going to make 100 mini slices of cake by Monday with crayola.

Dude I don't have time to test new wax! I have been making candles for 6 years and been in business for 4. I found the stuff that worked for me and never strayed, why fix what ain't broke right?

I have played with blends in spare time..... but never really had anything that was "better". Plus for this application I need them to be hard, 1 pour and very opaque and have a strong throw. So 4794 and CBL 141 is out for the opaque and one pour thing. Any blending suggestions? Please? Anyone.... Help a sister out?

Okay can someone tell me why all of the sudden my tarts are smelling like burning crayons and the scent that I can smell is only lasting 2 hours?

I use Astorlite V for my bakery tarts and they SUCK now! They used to be so strong and last at least 8 hours for the little .07 oz cakes.

I need a replacement wax fast to fill my orders. Any recommendations for a new wax for tarts to release from silicone molds.

Help would be appreciated!

Golden Brands. Its a very soft soy wax. Cheap too. It works wonders for wet spots.

Try adding 10-20 % GB402. It will clear those spots right up. You may have to adjust your wick up but most likely not.

Hey Lisa,

Who did these for you? They look incredible! Can you post the link?

Try Uline.com

Oh anyone using the V? Am I the only one smelling burnt crayons and plastic when you melt it?

All of the Astor waxes have changed for the worst. If you are a J50 user try makes scents candle supply. The 300 blend is the original J50 that he has blended by one of the wax manufactures.

Try the molds on ebay and there is one chick that I can't think of her name right now..... If you type in like embed molds or prim molds she usually comes up. Anyway they look like a really big ice cube tray.

Meaning how long the scent lasts not actual "burn time"

I guess "fragrancing time" would be a better phrase.

For those that blend these two waxes for tarts, what is the aprox burn time you all are getting. I am getting about 11 solid hours.

Anyone try the CBL 141 & J223 50/50 or 70/30? I am getting good results with that too and I wanted to know others thoughts.

I'll see your ass at 3 o' clock!

Some more than others but you should know that.

Ah yes, but I will say it to your face first, I do not get message board balls : )

Well when you act like you are in grade school, what do you expect?

Seems to me that we all act like we are in grade school.

They are very pretty! Great Job!

I have tried them and have been happy with them. I don't really think they are more intense, however. Some of the fragrances are naturally more intense that others and I regulate those, but generally I use 1 oz/lb., as I do with other brands.

The quality of the ultimate fo's is very good and the fragrances are beautiful. I do recommend them for the quality.

mama:o

I agree.

I offer some very good advertising for craft websites at really good rates. I own and operate three online crafters marketplaces... please do check them out.

Hey, quick question... How can you write an unbiased review of someones candle if you make and sell them your self? And if the site is for candle customers, why would you list candle making supply sites?

Also "thecandlebuzz"..... seems really familiar? Where have I seen a site like that?

Hummmmmmm.
