Henryk Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Using metal molds (aluminum or tin) for bw is just a pain - like you are finding out. If you want to continue, use a silicone spray - not vegetable spray - that stuff is just melting right off into the wax - silicone won't as its heat stable to 405F. Any home/hardware store should have it.IMO, its best to use silicone molds with bw - I don't use any mold release with mine - even when using bw.HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam W Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 After the candle has completely set up, you can pop it in the freezer BUT ONLY FOR A FEW MINUTES OR IT WILL CRACK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dleonard Posted November 14, 2006 Author Share Posted November 14, 2006 Thanks I Will Try The Silicone, I Already Tried The Fridge Last Night, And Still Could Not Take Out Of The Mold, So I Used The Heat Gun, But It Ruins The Look Of The Candles.Take Care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
