Candlelovr Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 You can use it but if I remember correctly, 4625 is not a translucent wax so it may be difficult to see your chunks thru the overpour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margaritamama Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Candlelovr is correct! You can make the chunks with 4625, but for an overpour it would not work too well as the wax it is pretty much opaque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrySC Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 To add to this question...what DO you use for overpour then? I assume 1343 with no additives? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breanna Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Yes,,I use the 1343 as over pour to my Chunkies and I add nothing to the over pour,,come out good for me,,HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I use the 1343 too. It works well pouring over the chunks so you can see them. You don't have to add anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheilaW Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 If 4625 is all you have right now then go ahead and use it for the overpour. It may not be as opaque but it will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pennipom@yahoo.com Posted June 14, 2006 Author Share Posted June 14, 2006 Thanks for all the replies, I made a pillar with this wax and it was fugly, so I am just going to use up what I have left of this wax and make chunks out of it and use 1343 for the over pour.
