hewells Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Does anyone else have this problem??? It doesn't matter what kind of container I put this in, I go through dang near every wick I have trying to find one that burns right. Right now I use 415, as soon as this runs out I am changing over to 464. I have an 8oz Roly poly that I have tried to wick with every HTP I have.I have a status votive jar that I got at walmart put an HTP 83 in it and it just drowns out I am soooo driving myself nuts with this FO, does anyone possibly have any suggestions as to what wick to use???

Candle Makin Momma Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 I haven't had to wick up with this one, but I use Jelly jars and votives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinInOR Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Haven't used VV in a container blend, just a votive/pillar, but it took my usual "larger" wick. My octagonal votives (that basically melt down into a roly poly size) took a LX16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a1190w Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 hewells,It might depend on your F/O load. I have used an HTP104 at 8% f/o in EZ soy wax in an 8oz jelly jar for years with no problem.Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care for the look of the jj, so with that I get to test test test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
