Too much FO?


Recommended Posts

Yes, it might not fully incorporate with the wax leaving puddles of floating FO which can be a hazard. Also, if you use too much, or more than needed actually to get a good throw (when you get a throw) then you are wasting resources and money. Even if it is just a hobby, or you are just starting out and not selling, it's still wasted money on resources not needed because you are using too much. 

 

Others can chime in on their experiences as well.

Other than the HT what are other signs that one is using too much FO? 

weeping

sooting

mushrooming

surface fire

too large of a flame (too much fuel)

too small of a flame (clogged wick)

puddling at bottom of candle (fire hazard)

reduced HT

probably many more I can't think of at the moment.
