countrycandles Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Right now I use J50, but if I were to switch to J223, would I pretty much use the same wicks as with J50 in candles? I just don't want to have to retest all the fragrances to see which wick to use. Or should I just stick with J50? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth-VT Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I just don't want to have to retest all the fragrances to see which wick to use. If you don't want to have to test, then don't switch. If you switch, you will have to test all your fragrances. That's just the way it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countrycandles Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 That's what I figured. I might eventually change, but right now I have already tested wicks and fragrances with J50. I'll just stick with it.Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will not have to throw out your old wicks more than likely. c. You can always do a gradual change. Keep your current formula with the j-50 and slowly (as you test), change to the J-223. Know what I am saying?I switched from J-50 to J-223 about 4 years ago. That is how I did it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
