I may bite the bullet and order a couple just to see if I can figure out what's in it. I can see people liking this and wow, what a lot less work I think. I guess it would depend on what it cost. Watching her pour some in the burner on the You Tube video, it took quite a lot. You can see how far down the bottle went after she set it back down. So there might be 8 or ten times in it? Have to compare that to the cost of 8-10 tarts and see also how long it goes in a melter. I have some of the wax sold by Miami-Erie, the same kind they use and quit selling to customers. Strange directions for it being soy. Heat to 250-275, add FO and pour. I always thought soy had to be handled at a lower temp? I don't do soy so I'm not sure. This isn't on their website yet when I looked a while ago. JB

Well, here it is - Squirty Wax you just squirt in your warmer. I found this on another site a few month's back, but now Front Porch is carrying it. I hope I can post this here and not get in trouble, but it looks very interesting. New Squirty Wax added to Stock at Front Porch Candle Co. Inbox x Front Porch Candle Co. frontporch@frontporchcandleco.com via mail135.atl21.rsgsv.net 3:50 PM (1 hour ago) to me New Squirty Tart Wax Now added to Stock~ Tart Wax in a Bottle- Just Squeeze in your Warmer! Available in 8oz and 16oz Sizes. Also you will start seeing our New labels like in the picture on all of our products!

I've tried their oud wood in several waxes, paraffin and soy, and though I smell it, there is not a good throw in any of them. I love the scent though!

Tomorrow Front Porch Candle is debuting their new "squirtable wax." If it's what I saw on another site, it's a thick liquid that comes in a squirtable bottle and you put what you want in your burner. I wish I had saved that other site, but I didn't. I do remember that it had most of the popular scents, but claimed why melt a tart when you can just "squirt" in what you want? I kind of think they might be doing the same thing. Talk about easy to make! I got an email notice of this happening so I'm sure going to check it out tomorrow. JB

I've had her candles and tarts before. It would be a dream come true to figure out that secret because they truly were the best, strongest, and longest lasting I have ever smelled.

I'm sure like me, just about everyone has read the descriptions on waxes. I remember this from somewhere, but don't know which one it was. The description said, "has the consistency of Crisco." It's a paraffin, not soy or parasoy blend. It wouldn't be 4627 (the Vaseline goopy one) but does anyone recall reading that somewhere and do you remember which one it might have been? It's a long shot, I know. Thanks in Advance JB

I'd love to hear your testing results! Thanks!

Karen, I tried the 4794 and 4627 and I have to say it's the best melt I've ever made. I'm doing 60/40 with 4794 being the 60 percent. I tried 50/50 and found them way too sticky. I'm wondering if 70/30 would give me a longer scented tart since 4794 tends to go so long. Have you tried that combination? Using 1.5 FP per pound as well. So far, I'm impressed. Thank you for the tip! JB

I get mine on ebay at candlewarmerstore. They are reasonably priced enough to increase them some and they ship super fast. JB

AT BCN it's Amber Rose Tobacco and almost my favorite scent. A little smoke, a little rose, and very complex. It was strong for me in para/soy blend. JB

The messy scoopy one in the bag? Yes, I have that! What percentage are we talking 70/30 (70 being 4794) or 50/50? I always seem to push the outer limit of FO going as high as possible, but someone told me to cut it back that too much can take away the scent, so maybe I should try that as well. I know what I will be doing today Thank you!

Just to see what competition is out there, I've also ordered from many vendors. The paraffin ones do seem to last longer. I'm totally blown away and MAJOR GREEN with envy by one. I won't mention the name, just initials CBV. Wow. Talk about throw and long lasting. I almost cried, no kidding! If I could even get close to that I would be happy. My basement right now probably has every kind of wax known to man and I'm still searching for that perfect, long lasting strong tart. That particular place is a "blend of paraffins, no soy" and it sure seems to be the absolute best blend. She should be very proud of her accomplishment! I'm going to try raising the 4794 percentage to 75 with the remainder 6006 and see what happens with that. I should have been keeping notes because I've undoubtedly done it already, not sure. I never dreamed success in this business would be so elusive! Thanks everyone for the help, appreciated.

There is so much valuable information here and knowledgeable people! I have been testing scents for the past year using various waxes - 4794/EZ Soy combo and then I found 6006 which is nice to not have to mix anything. I know so many people use it and I do get good results (I only make tarts) but I can't seem to make them last more than 5-6 hours no matter the scent. I'm heating to 190, adding FO at about 185, stirring for the one to two minutes and pouring into molds. I thought it might be candle nose and have my testers saying the same thing, that they don't go long. Am I doing something wrong? I'm using 1.5 ounces of FO per pound since 6006 can hold that and I have no wicking issues making tarts. I want to make this wax work, but they need to last longer or am I expecting too much? I tried 4794/6006 combo 50 percent each and they lasted longer, but didn't have a good throw. Does anyone have any advice? Thanks so much!
