jennifer Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Does anyone have suggestions for which parrafin to blend with 415? i am hoping for a soft wax so that I can easily cut it, but will look into whatever is needed as I have access to a heated knife.I am looking to increase hot scent throw and improve the overall wax stability--frosting, cauliflower top, bad adhesion to glass--and I will welcome any and all thoughts on this topic. Also are all uv stabilizers created equal or is there a difference?Thanks for you help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 I'm no expert on blending, but if you want a paraffin container blend to mix in, I would try J50 or 4627. 4627 is an extremely soft wax - you can't really cut it well, but you can scoop it. If you're using a presto pot, the messiness of this wax isn't as big of a deal. It has an amazing scent throw, but I've never mixed it with soy.

jennifer Posted August 4, 2006 Author Share Posted August 4, 2006 Thanks, I looked some more on the old boards, but couldn't find much there. I'm just not familiar with any parrafin waxes. but have read often that 415 is best used as a base wax, so I thought i would try it as just that if somone could point me in a general direction. J50 was one of the waxes that I read about so it may be the one I try.Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
