Saltbox Pantry Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Sample kit. The customer service is wonderful and from what the rep told me, I will be getting a LOT of goodies. I've been reading some good reviews so thought I would give it try. Can't wait to get them and test.SP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmspath Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 What is this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giedre11 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Never heard of them before, but googled the name and came up with the site. Their wicks sound interesting. I just wonder how hot you can pour your wax before they lose their rigidity. Would be interested in hearing your results. I have a few molds {pillar} that are a son of a gun to keep the wicks straight due to multiple wicking. Anyway let us know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltbox Pantry Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 I had read about these on 2 other forums. I'm having a hard time with my HTPs and Soy wax at the moment....don't know if its wicks or wax, so I'm trying anything I can find....LOL It should be interesting and will post my resultsSP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunny Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I tried quite a few and didn't have any luck in my joy wax, maybe with paraffin they'll work better.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltbox Pantry Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 The HTPS work great in my paraffin but lately not in my soy blend. They were great when I first started using them in July but then I noticed a difference in the burning just before Christmas.......so here I go testing for new wicks.SP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Ford Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Hello All,I am new to the forum, but i do have some information regarding FilTec wicks and hybrid candle blends(soy¶ffin). The soy has a higher viscosity when molten compared to paraffin. That is why candles made with a blend or all veggie products require more wick than paraffin. The "open" nature of the Filtec wick allows for better "wicking" action and a better burn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CandleCouture Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Brad, what do you sell? It's hard to figure that out from your website? Are these all custom manufactured waxes, etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
