  1. I've used palm wax from several companies, and have never had to use stearic or mold release stuff to get them out of the mold. they just slip right out. you need to zap the mold with a heat gun before pouring in your wax, and then cover the mold after pouring in the wax (cools slower, preventing holes and craters). with testing, works a whole lot easier to use wick pins so you can just pull a tabbed wick out from the bottom to test another. hth

    this is who I went through. He was great, and got the lowest rate around. I feel confident that he got us everything that we needed for all of our products (Cards, candles, sunscreens, mosquito repellent, etc). Will definitely be recommending him to others, and thanks to whomever listed him here in the first place. You won't be sorry!:yay:

  3. I do the waterslide, have found out that different decals from different companies behave differently. I also work with palm wax, and the decals look great on them except when you have a photo of people. Just wanted to try the embeds to see how they look, but want to stay with the natural waxes (soy and palm). Thanks for all the help everyone. You are a godsend. Not a day goes by that I don't learn something.

  4. I'm trying to do a photo embed in a 3X6 pillar using EcoSoya PB (1.8 oz with 2 teasp BW), 6% Fo (White Chocolate from JBN..super yummy), no other additives. My pic is on tracing paper, looks great, followed instructions to the letter, even using oil for mold release, paper soaks up wax well, sets up in the mold great. When I go to get it out of the mold, I always have to stick it in the frig for about 10 mins, and the photo sticks to the side of the mold every time! What am I doing wrong???

    Call me clueless and frustrated in Kansas!!! lol HELP:confused: Pretty Please
