I know this is a silly question, but which supplier is WSP?

Is your scoopable parasoy blend KY Parasoy Tart and Votive Blend?

I have been using the KY133 Paraffin Wax for my tarts as I have been told that paraffin wax has the best scent throw. Today when we were pouring tarts, I was having problems with the oil separating from the wax. I checked the temperature and it was 180 and I stirred it in for 2 minutes. Don't know what is happening. Any suggestions?

If you could just send me a piece of paper with the oil on it, I can tell right away if it is the right one. My address is 1900 Eagle Crest Lorena, Tx. 76655. I would really appreciate it if you would do that for me. Thanks so much . Elizabeth

thank you.

I have been purchasing High Maintenance Fragrance Oil from Starrville in Tyler, Texas and they no longer carry it. Does anyone know another supplier that carries it. Thank you, Elizabeth

I am having the hardest time finding a good cinnamon stick smell that burns well in candles and doesn't have a harsh smell while burning. Suggestions?

If you don't mind me asking what type of wax do you use to attain scent throw for that long and how much oil do you use for a batch of say 3 - 6 unit standard clamshells? I have been using KY's Soy Paraffin tart votive blend and am somewhat satisfied, but the shipping is killing me. They sold out to Rustic Escentuals and I am paying $28.00 shipping for a 50# box of wax.

I guess I am a little slow, but what is CO and BW? Not seen these before.

I think I am going to experiment with wicks first. I like 6006 mixed but not straight. As far as the jar being over wicked, I don't see that as the problem because it is not sooting the jar and it actually wants to bog down in the fat part of the jar. The jar is an 18 oz. Victorian Keepsake and I have it double wicked. If it was depositing a lot of soot on the jar or was burning really hot, I would say that is the problem. I really think it is something screwy with the coating on the wick, but may be wrong about that.

Yes, I use mostly CS oils and 4627 wax and have awesome scent throw. I use eco wicks, but am in the process of possibly experimenting with wicks. I am still having some issues with soot on the jar and on the wax. Not sure what is causing that. I have made candles for 3 years and the soot on the wax is a new issue. I can't imagine why you are not getting great scent throw with that wax and the cs oils.

Which wax do I need to change, the soy or the paraffin?

I have noticed that when I trim my wicks the black burned wick is very sticky and won't come loose from the wick trimmer unless I use a paper towel or tissue to remove it. Maybe the coating on the wick is the problem.

Great suggestion. I have been reading a lot of threads and I use 4627 and 6006 and it sounds like LX is really good with those waxes. Maybe they would work better. I wonder for an 8 oz. jar with a 3" diameter and an 18 oz. jar double wicked, what would be a good starting point on wicks?
