JimC Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Has anyone tried PY-16? PY-16 is an additive that is suppose to help wax adhear to glass containers and prevent wet spots. I don't have wet spots when I first make container candles. They start showing up a week or two later. I have ordered some PY-16 and will be trying it next week. I just want to see if anyone else has used it and what the results were. By the way I am (currently) using J223. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizbizzyb Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 This is the email I got from Steve about this today....HI,Py-16 when used at 1-3 tablespoons per pound will not effect your melt pool which is where the scent throw comes from.It helps retain the scent some as well if you have some that bleed on you.SteveTechnical Supportwww.TheCandlemakersStore.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
