Winterwillow Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 My tarts are really soft using NatureWax V-1. can I add Container or pillar wax to make the tarts harder? Maybe adding 25% of the pillar or container to 75% votive?Thanks,Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carriegsxr6 Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 if you add container wax, they will be softer. if you want them harder, try adding a little pillar wax, try 70% votive wax to 30% pillar wax. I use the v-1 wax and always let my tarts set up overnight before i unmold them, they are ususally hard enough so I am not sure why you find them soft.

Accents Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Are you sure you didn't accidentally use the C3 for your tarts? I find V1 to be quite hard and get cracking in my tarts and votives. How much FO did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire and Ice Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 I agree, Accent. V1 is plenty hard for tarts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennster Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Is it too hard? Should I take a look at P-1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella1952 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 V1 is HARD. There is NO confusing it with C3! P1 is even harder... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much FO did you use?That's what I was thinking. I gave up on the V-1 because I had so many problems with cracking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
