This is a funny thread

Has anyone tried these candles? What did you think of them? What kind of wax do you think is in them? Does anyone know if it is patented tec.? js

Call Bluegrass candle supply.

Are you sure you are doing it right. It seems you are the only one with problems with the cold throw. Maybe it is the scent you are using. this blend is mostly soy, and I know that soy doesn't work with every FO. I have made several candles with this blend and Melissa has sent me alot of candles they have made for testing. I see no problems with any of these. JS:yay:

this is the best wax I have ever used....... one word..... WOW.

Thanks for the info.

He responed ritght away to me also. This is great. Thanks Vickey. JS

Those are not all pure soy blends. Most of those have cotton and other stuff we are not to know about.

one is made from soy and one is made from palm. they are both fully hydrogenated oils.

Call Gateway and ask for Kris. They are located in Dupo, IL. 1-800-220-1963. they have 100% soy.

Here we go again. the process of adding Hydrogen to the soy does not change it into something besides soy. It is still soy. I think that people use straigt soy for many reasons. First, I think that early marketing ploys pushed people to believe that all soy was the only way to go. At the time it really was, but now people are getting better at making better vegetable based waxes. As candle makers we need to be aware of what is in the wax. If you market you candle as supporting the American farmer then you should know what is in it. I know that palm is not grown in America. Second, it is cheaper to buy straight soy. Once you start adding cotton and other vegetable waxes you will find the price starts to increase. You may have a better product, but it will cost more. Therefore, many people chose to use all soy.

I would say they cut it.

I don't believe that Cal Soy is 100% soy. I think they add cotton and an additive. So you should be able to pour this at a higher temp. JS

There are many ways to get a smooth top. first, you can pour hot and then use a heat gun. Second, You can pour at a low temp. Third, you can pour with about an half inch left, let it cool then pour the top. This is only if it is pure soy. If you are using a soy blend, C3, ecosoy, GW444 or GW449 then you can pour at any temp. JS
