beckemmons Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I am using paraffin 1239 wax. With a range of different scents. All have vybar in them and color. Just needing a starting point with wicks. The sphere is a 3" ball mold. I would appreciate any help I can get. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beckemmons Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 I have all different wicks zink, htp, cd, wi series, rrd's. The list goes on lol just wandered on a starting point so I could waste as little as possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Then pick one for a 3" diameter candle and try from there I'd probably start with zinc out of what you list. On Peak's site, if you look at the wicking, it gives suggestions for sizes. Pick one closest to and test it out. By the time you reach halfway, you should know whether to wick up, down or if you have it. Scents will make a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
