Sab Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 For me it's the 8 oz tin. Seems no matter what the fragrance I can wick this tin with one of two wicks. I wish they were all that easy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scntdwik Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 And what do you wick your 8oz Tin and JJ's with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crafty1_AJ Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 8 oz jjDitto. That one was a piece of cake compared to some of the other containers I've attempted to wick. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaybee23 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 The widemouth mason jar was pretty easy, so was the keepsake jar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsami3000x Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I'd say the 4 oz tin, well it's all I've tried wicking so far.Come to find out I got it right the first time, all I had to do was embrace the film.Too bad I tried 2 more sizes of wicks and just got more headaches.SamiP.S. message board do: post a pic and say is this normal?checking account don't: buy more wicks before posting said message Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Girl Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 8 oz. regular JJ and 8 oz. square tins... by far the easiest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candle Man Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Any straight sided container the same size diameter (or close to it) as an 8oz JJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 8 oz JJ has been the easiest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sab Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 8 oz tin - HTP 83 or LX 14 works best for me. HTP mushrooms less with most FO's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pocha Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I am using GW 464 and am still testing wicks...tried the ECO but so far have liked the CD's better...am still deciding between the CD 16 and 14. I'm about to test HTP's as well. I also ordered samples of the "700 series" too but I haven't received them. I have gotten a full melt pool easily and (maybe too) quickly with the CD16 and 14 (a little hang up with the first couple of burns) but I didn't have as much problem with mushrooms as i did with the Eco's. I have a feeling I'll end up with the CD's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxanne Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I have tested 4 different wicks with both an 8oz Tin and JJ and cannot seem to get all the wax to burn on the sides.What is everyone else's suggestions for wicking these? In 8-oz tins, I use CD-14s with some scents and CD-18s with others. And there are a few scents (like blends using patchouli EO) that leave a rim with the CD-18, so I'm experimenting with double wicking those.My wax is EZ Soy with about 5% beeswax added.
