CaptnKush Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Aztec Candle and Soap Making Supplies 1 hr · New Soy/Coconut/Beeswax Blend Waxes Coming Early April We are having three new waxes for Containers, Pillars, and Tart produced just for us and testing on these has been great! They are being made by a manufacturer who currently only produces for large end users and we are the first to distribute one of their waxes so these are completely new to the market. We will be offering 2lb samples initially to try them out and are very excited about these new blends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptnKush Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 Well the post I made was their email to me, but I read it is going to be early May now instead of April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightLight Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Yes they told me that and will offer decent sample sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnKush Posted April 18, 2020 Author Share Posted April 18, 2020 Im suspecting it might be the Lab & Co wax since its growing in popularity unless IGI made a new one and they seem to carry most of the IGI wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peggy T Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Hmmmm Aztec is relatively close to me. OK, it's not that close but I pass through KNoxville when I visit my daughter so if it's a good wax I could buy in bulk and pick up. Thanks for the tip.

Better call them first, because their website says they are closed for local pickups. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peggy T Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 It doesn't look like it's in stock yet. I would start with a sample (delivered) anyway. Then if I really liked it, I'd drive up to Knoxville to buy a bunch. But I don't foresee that happening for a while (testing the wax or going to Aztec).

We will be offering 2lb samples initially to try them out and are very excited about these new blends. I just received my samples- I bought 2 one pound bags.. Honestly, it looks and smells exactly like Millenium Soy. Once melted it is a dark yellow color. I made2 test candles- the first tester, I heated the wax to 180° added scent, stirred about 30 secs and poured. The other tester I heated the wax to 190, added scent, stirred about 30 secs then poured. I used 10% fragrance in each one.. I'll test burn in a few days, curious what wicks will be the best. I'll start with CD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made a few testers... this wax looks and smells just like Millenium Soy to me, it comes in little beads... It's definitely mostly soy .I don't have the patience to wait for the wax to cool to 140 before I pour so I won't be using it as a stand alone wax, I would blend it.. the HT and CT are both really good... I burned a tester after 4 day cure and it was good and strong.. I did 10% fragrance- heated the wax to 190 added scent, stirred about 30 secs and poured. It's great on it's own, but it doesn't look pretty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually recently reached out to Calwax to see if they offered small quantities since every supplier seemed to be out of stock. The rep told me they do sell directly...with a 500lb minimum!

StandleyHandcrafted Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Just made my first batch with this wax and first impression are not great. Small sinkholes on top, larger sinkholes inside, tops cooled and looked like orange peels. Not a great hot throw after 3 days, waiting to test burn the other two at 7-8 days and 14 days.

This wax, Aztec's new wax, is actually made by Blended Waxes, not Lab & Co.. it is their BW 917 and the tart blend is Blended Waxes Bw923 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellajoan Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Anyone have success with this wax for decent HT? Thinking of trying a sample--I do like the blending of those three waxes, but it'd be good to know what their percentages of each are.
