PINKT Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Hey, I just wanted to give you all an FYI- the 4630 and 6006 waxes are NOT made by IGI, these are blends made exclusively for VA Candle Supply. The Coconut Apricot wax is NOT Ceda Serica Coco Apricot made by Calwax, nor is the Coconut 83 made by Accublend. Both of these blends are made exclusively for VA Candle Supply.. I got this information directly from Phil, the owner. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 That is…. Interesting…. Why intentionally name them the same as popular branded waxes if they are not the actual branded waxes? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura C Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Yes, naming them the same as another company or brand is confusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belinda Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I ordered some 4625 from them that wasn't like any 4625 that I've ever ordered from anyone else. It looked like it until it was poured and hardened and then it looked so different, with the colors not mixing well with the wax. I even poured it into a candle jar and it didn't rattle at all. I emailed them and told them it wasn't 4625 but they insisted it was. It's so ugly and 4625 wouldn't have good adhesion to a jar without rattling. They wouldn't listen to what I was saying so I've just been mixing it a little at a time with other tart waxes to use it up. I"ll never make that mistake again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Slowly finding out that many of the bigger wax mfgs and suppliers will tweak a wax and repackage for other suppliers who buy bulk. It's fine if they rename the wax but naming same is just dang confusing. It's bad enough batch to batch differs and requires retesting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooooooo frustrating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
