birdieluvr76 Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 I have had a request for a wickless candle. I only make tarts and votives, so the only wax I have is IGI 4794. Would it be OK to use this wax for a wickless candle? I hate to order special wax just for this one thing.TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerinarkansas Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 For wickless you would use a container wax since it is in a container. It would be softer and melt quicker. The votive/pillar would take forever since it is a harder wax. Ginger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justrightcandles Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 what should you use for the tarts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizbizzyb Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 I also use my regular container blend for my wickless candles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerinarkansas Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 For tarts, you would use the votive wax. It's just a harder wax that is more "freestanding" for projects that don't require a container. Ginger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justrightcandles Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 i was thinking of mixing my container and my pariffin 50/50 to make tarts. I will see how that works? I did also want to try the soy PB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
