iammommytwo Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 hi all- gonna make some tealights w/some left over wax. Does it really matter what type of wax I use??TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barb_513 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 It has not made a difference for me. Most of mine are CB just because thats what I use most. If you search I think people mostly just pour whatever they have leftover.HTH,Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carriegsxr6 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 i have noticed that I get a weaker flame from my tealight wicks when I use the PB in tealights. So I usually use the CB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henryk Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Regarding wicking -'cause the CB has a lower meltpoint than the PB. I would use a container blend for that reason unless I was using one of those fancy multi-opening, poly tealight molds that candlewic has where you pop out the tealight forms and then wick them and then set them in the cups. PB would probably work better since it would release better in that case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
