ashncandles Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I adored my old faithful GL 70/30 wax, but since I can't get that anymore - I'm looking for something similar. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it! Meanwhile, I'll be hunting through all the supplier sites to see if I can narrow it down. I'd prefer NOT to have to make my own blend.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Was it a parasoy blend or a blend of 2 soy waxes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashncandles Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 Was it a parasoy blend or a blend of 2 soy waxes?Oh my... I want to say it was parasoy but I'm honestly not to sure.. it was 5+ years ago that I used it. :/ I am pretty sure it was a solid wax rather than flakes. So that's what has me leaning towards saying it was parasoy.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjdaines Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I am enjoying making my own blends, trying a 3 wax blend at the moment to get a melting point that I think I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with that! I'm leaning towards an all soy wax this time anyways, was just wondering if there was something similar to my old wax love.

Beth Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Isn't the Clarus parasoy the old GL wax? Do a forum search for Clarus & look for posts by chuck/Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbla Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 3022 is the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChandlerWicks Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 You can ask for a free 10LB sample of the 3022 wax on the Clarus website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashncandles Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 Awesome - thank you everyone! I did submit a request for a sample, crossing my fingers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwantItgreen Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 While you're testing the 3022, also test IGI 6006. That also is a parasoy with approx. the same ratios. 6006 can be bought from most any supplier, and could save you shipping $. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_35550 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Try 85% 6006 with 15% 415 at 185 degrees into room temp jars and cd wicks. Fo load is a little tricky but the Clarus 3022 is more dependable (usually). HTHSteve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
