Carriegsxr6 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 depends on the wax brand. different soy waxes need different cure times. some need 24 hrs and others need up to 7 days. What brand of soy wax are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 7 days, partly because of candlenose and partly because of my KISS consistancy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abbiepql Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 I find my container blend needs little cure time, but the soy blends for pillars needs at least 4 days to a week!HTH ~ Abbie:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire and Ice Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I do five to seven days on my soy containers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorrie Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I let me candles my candles cure as long as possible but I think that they get better with age. I do a minimum of 3 days on everything that I make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebarnes Posted September 16, 2005 Author Share Posted September 16, 2005 I let me candles my candles cure as long as possible but I think that they get better with age. I do a minimum of 3 days on everything that I make.Im finding that 5-7 days gives the best results. I poured a candle on Monday night and another on Weds night. I burn them both Thursday night. The one I made Weds had NO scent at all. The one I made Monday was OK. I also had one that I made 2-3 weeks ago (using the same recipe) man is was the bomb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorrie Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I have some that I made last year. When you open the container wow they are strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 For me, it depends on the FO as to how long of a cure is needed. On average though, I try to give at least a 48 hour cure time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
