Quentin Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I think I'm in love with a wax. IGI 6028 and I are getting along pretty well. She's so easy to use. She touts herself as a Single Pour Votive/Pillar Blend Hybrid. Since I met her on the internet, I have to be cautious. I'll have to cut one open to see what the inside looks like to be sure. There's only one problem so far and I'm sure there's a quick answer. This wax has a 200-210 F pouring temp. The wick putty I've been using on my aluminum molds melts at this heat and the wax comes pouring out the bottom. I tried duct tape on top of the putty and still the same problem, but not as bad. Question: What can I use to seal the wick hole in the mold that will prevent this problem when pouring at these high temperatures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 High temp aluminum tape, like for heating ducts or car exhaust pipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
