I have a customer needing Therapeutic Wax for a dipping vat, my question is...

Is Therapeutic Wax a special kind of wax or can you use a straight paraffin and what whould be the safe melt point?

I have looked up Therapeutic Wax but I can't find much detail about the wax and the prices for this wax is very high priced.

Prices I have seen are $28.00 for 6 LB's. I can get IGI 2281 with a melt point of 124*F for only $11.95 for 10 LB's.

Thanks for any help, Candle Man

NG sells wax specifically for this, it's cheap, and it works wonderfully! I'm not sure of the melt point thought, and have often wondered what "normal" wax could be used.

Thanks, I will check them out since I also order FO from them.

IGI 2281 is therapeutic wax. They have a type called IGI 2288 that's sold for the purpose but the specs are identical and they're the same wax. I don't understand what the 2 different numbers signifies.

BTW CandleScience sells it for 10.95 for 10 lbs or 53.95 a case. BCN carries it also if the shipping is better for you.

Thanks, but Texas suppliers are closer & cheaper shipping for me.

Turnips huh!

For more moisturization, you can add an ounce of your favorite carrier oil (almond, grapeseed, jojoba etc) to 4 lbs of wax to the melted wax for a fantastic feel!

Yeah if you really want to pamper your turnips.
