JustJackie Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I just got a bunch of 1 lb. oils, and two of them are very cloudy and have sediment in the bottom of the bottle. I have shook them and it mixes for about 30 mins. and then everything settle to the bottom again. I am guessing that I got the the bottom of the barrel with these two oils. I am going to email the supplier about this..... but my question is....did any of you try to use this "bottom of the barrel" oil before? Does it have negative effects on your finished product? I don't even want to try using the oil becuase I would be wasting wax if it isn't good or makes it ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugenia Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 You did the right thing in contacting the supplier. Wait and see what they say, then post more if their answer is not acceptable. Always go to the source first and make it public only if they offer no resolution. :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisR Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Yep I'd contact the supplier, that's not good oil!! In the 7 years I've been doing candles and ordering from 20+ suppliers, I've never gotten an oil like that. In the winter, I will occasionally get an oil that crystalizes, but a few minutes in a warm water bath and they dissolve the way they should. If you ever find 'crap' in your oils, I would make sure the supplier took them back and replaced them with good oils!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
