My mother-in-law refuses to trim the wicks on her candles. She says she has been burning candles since she was a teenager and has never done that so she isn't about to start now. She does know that all candle labels say to trim them, but she doesn't feel the need, even after I explain why it is important!
Needless to say she is not a tester for me.:undecided
No candles for her!!!

Woohoo! Isn't it nice when something *works*!!

Type of Soy or Soy Blend you use? GF 415 (from TN Candle Supply)
Additives if any? Beeswax
Preferred dyes? None
Preferred wick (Not sizes)? Cotton
Pouring temp you recommend? Slushy 100-110
What you do to prevent frosting? not too noticable since I cut out dye, BW helps some
What you do to prevent rough tops? Not a problem, nature of soy
Do you do anything to prevent wet spots? not too much of a problem.
