Candlelovr Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 Is OK6228 good for chunk candles? Is it translucent so that the chunks show thru? Im trying to use up my left over wax...couldnt even tell ya what kind it is, its THAT old! I can tell you that the chunks are pink and I wanted to know if i use 6228 as the overpour, if the chunks will show thru or not! Thanks Much for your info!!

Candlelovr Posted September 10, 2005 Author Share Posted September 10, 2005 I think I just found the answer to my question " Candles made with OK6228/1 are opaque" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanaE Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 I've used OK6228 for chunk pillars, but it's not in the least bit translucent! I'd make very dark chunks, pack the mold full and do an overpour. You can see the chunks very well, but it's not the same effect as using something like 1274, 1343A or 4045H. It could be an experiment....something you keep and burn for yourself DanaE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlelovr Posted September 10, 2005 Author Share Posted September 10, 2005 Thank you for your reply! Would you happen to have a pic of the chunk you speak of? So I can see what it looks likeThanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanaE Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Thank you for your reply! Would you happen to have a pic of the chunk you speak of? So I can see what it looks likeThanks!No, sorry. I haven't made a chunk OK6228 in at least 6 months. All of my chunkies since then have been made with mottling waxes DanaE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
