Best wax and wick choice?


Recommended Posts

I used to make candles a long time ago. I

Used only straight paraffin, and they turned out

A bust. This time around, I tried the parasoy

Blend with a csn 14 6". The HT is wonderful,

And I love using these together. The only problem

I am having is the wick burns down the candle,

Leaving some on the sides. Should I try a can 20 6"?

Or does anyone have any suggestions on a parasoy wax

And a wick that does well with it? I get all of my

Supplies via candlescience, and use 16oz

Mason jars.

Best advice I can give you is to visit a seller like Peak and buy sample packs of wicks and test them.

As far a candle "tunneling", that usually calls for a larger wick of the same type or looking for a hotter wick of a different type.

I agree.

For a parasoy blend I had the best luck with CDs and zincs.

The CSN wicks were designed for container palm or more specifically glass glow.

For parasoy blend Zinc's worked the best for me.
