luckylady Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I have a request to make my 11 oz barrel jar candles (anchor hocking) wicked.. Usually I only do wickless.. Of course I know I have lots of testing to do.... I use igi4630a formerly igi1945.. its a preblended one pour container wax..The jars have a 4" diameter... I need to order some wicks to start testing, can any of you give me suggestions on whats the best to start with?? I like zinc wicks or LX.. thats what I have used in the past..I will be using Spiced Cranberry, Autumn Spice, Hot Apple Pie and Peppermint Kiss for FO's..Appreciate the suggestions!Happy Holidays!Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I would use 2 83 htp's at least with those spicy scents. I think that is what I used the last time I made them. hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillgunter Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Large jars are best wicked with two with that wax. If you have zinc 44s, start out with two of those and go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThanksTracyThey should work, I always believe in using what you have before you buy more:) The zincs seem to burn pretty well in that wax.
