tumbleweed Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I have tried 12 oz. Tureen jars with a single wick 34z in 4630 and the throw is poor. I have noticed most sites selling candles with the Tureen jars double wick. Why is this jar different? I have tried a double wick today and there is a significant difference. It looks like the single flame cannot provide enough heat to make the pool hot enough. Why? :embarasse Thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jillgunter Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Did you get a full melt pool? That is a pretty small wick, and the 4630 needs to be wicked up. You will just have to try different things until you find what works best for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
