I am afraid that If I drop the pour temperature 5 degrees then the layers may "unstick". The wax that I use is suitable for pillar candles .I am sure that there is no soy in this wax .
The mp of the wax is 58-60 Cº But I don't know the equivelant ºF. I added 3 heaping tbsand I poured the wax in the mold until the end of each layer . Them I waited for about 10 min and then I poured the next layer 5 degrees higher = 155ºF.
These candles were made from pillar wax mp58-60 C and I added 3tbs stearin per pound wax .I also added UV and fragrance .I used aluminium molds.I poured the wax at 150F and the room temperature was about 27C. The next layers were poured at about 155F.I tested the candles and the burning is absolutely perfect . There is no problem with the layers .The only problem is that there was no white effect around the candle . I saw the layer rustic candles that Scented made http://www.craftserver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=75753 and I really loved them . Jokerjen and JudyVega also made these kind of candles . Does anybody know the technic of "swirling" for these candles?
These candles can be burned . There is no doubt for that .I have tested these candles and they are very safe because they are made with the appropriate wax and the appropriate wik.
