Maibi.so.or.no Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I am regretting my decision moving to soy wax even though I have long burning, clean containers....I have no scent and for the life of me I dont get it. I am heating the wax to 180. But here comes the tricky part. Some people say add frag and color at that temp then some say at 160. And the 3 waxes I have are C3, 444. And Q210. I also make tarts but the Q210 is all I have used for those. Can I add something to help with the scent and cut the cure time. I used coconut oit and I purchased vybar.I have heard so many pour temps that I can not begin to explain. I need some help I have been doing 6006 for almost 1 and half years and I wanted something different....(Silly me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Welcome to the forum, and welcome to the soy struggle. This year the soy waxes have flat out stunk. I had some success with C3 and RRD wicks. What wicks, containers, fragrance sellers have you tried? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maibi.so.or.no Posted October 29, 2017 Author Share Posted October 29, 2017 I have tried ECO (which I currently am having success with) LX, zinc (yuck)..my containers have been the 8,nd 12 oz status, 12.25 oz vibe and 11 oz high ball from libbey. Now my scents have come,from Natures garden, bulk apoth,rustic ans I recently tried lone star and Aztec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajah Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Soy does not throw as well as paraffin. So a blend may work better for you. I use igi 4630 and GW 464 50/50 with htp wicks. This may help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
