  1. I use 6006 but not from Ah/RE ... I have good results with candlescience and Aztec
  2. Let us know I use 6006 and this jar I use zinc wicks. So far I am test 60z and 51z for this jar. I don't dye my candles and I use 8% for most of my scents. So far so good for me. I do t get a full mp after 1burn but it's good
  3. I know this is a long stretch. but can someone please tell me if they know of a blueberry cobbler close to Berts? I have tried Aztec Bitter Creek... im looking for the closest please....
  4. I use 6006 for containers only. But I will pour my extra in a 2oz portion cup for personal use. Again I mix 6006 with soy. It is a little hard getting out of the warmer. I use PB for my tarts and I love it....oh yeah I use zinc wicks and I get mushrooming also. I hate it but I like the wick wax jar combo I have.... So I make sure my customers know to trim the wick ...I stress it...it makes a difference in the burn and keeps the mushrooming to. Min
  5. I use 6006 and mostly oils from Aztec I have some oils like creme brulee I get excellent CT. But there are other oils the the at it's not S strong but it's there. I cure my candles at least 5days. I can test in 3days but 5 is the norm for me. Because of the soy and I add about 10-15% extra soy I wouldn't test until after 3 days.
  6. I agree this is my main supplier, I keep saying im going to try other suppliers but Aztec is so convenient for me...
  7. hey Jack I use 6006 for candle and PB/excel for melts ...what would you suggest to test?
