  1. How much total wax did you melt? At what temperature did you add the dye and how much? And did you stir it for 2-3 minutes afterwards?
  2. I blend Harmony Blend with GB 464 and recieve good results.
  3. I use this wax also and Zinc wicks worked the best for me. HTP wicks worked also.
  4. Zinc wicks worked the best for me in parasoy blend...if there is more paraffin than soy in it. HTP wicks worked also. I don't know how much soy is in that wax. I'm guessing yes, it could mess up the HT. Maybe someone with more experience can help you.
  5. I don't think FO needs to cure. We need to know the type of container you are testing with. Is it Glass or Tin? And what is the diameter size? And the type of wax paraffin, soy or parasoy? Then we could get you in a ballpark of wick sizes.
  6. For parasoy blend Zinc's worked the best for me.
  7. What kind of container (glass or tin)? What is the diameter on the container?
  8. All 6 oz. Tins. 25% Soy and 75% Paraffin Wax. 1 oz. Per Pound. All Candlescience FO's. Pumpkin Souffle - Medium CT and Strong HT. Peppermint Bark - Weak CT and Medium HT. Lavender - Weak CT and Medium HT. Honeysuckle Jasmine - Weak CT and Medium HT. Hansel and Gretel's House - Medium CT and Strong HT. Grapefruit and Mangosteen - Weak CT and Medium HT. Frankincense and Myrrh - Medium CT and Strong HT. Cranberry Marmalade - Medium CT and Strong HT. Caramelized Pralines - Medium CT and Strong HT. Lavender and Peppermint Bark were the weakest scents to me. A customer said Lavender was weak, and the candle was in their bedroom. Hansel, Frankincense and Caramelized were the strongest scents to me.
  9. Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm going to try BCN's Campfire Smoke.
  10. Anybody know where I can get Campfire scented oil for candles?
  11. I just poured this one tonight...OH MY!!
