jakalex Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Here is a pic of a few container candles I made with the palm wax. I have test burned the 9 oz hex (CSN14)~Coconut FO. I warmed my containers in the oven and heated the wax to 190 added my fragrance and poured immediately. I cooled them on a cookie rack. I think I will try the CSN 11 or 12 next because I think it burned too fast...but no soot! Awesome scent throw @ 7%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candle Man Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 They look nice.Is that palm wax made for containers? I thought palm wax was a higher melt point and only for pillars.OK - I see there is a container palm wax but 144*F melt point is still high for a container wax.

jakalex Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 They look nice.Is that palm wax made for containers? I thought palm wax was a higher melt point and only for pillars.Thanks! Yes this is the Glass Glow palm container wax for containers. It is alot more work than my soy because I do not heat my containers for soy. Cooling on a rack is a must to get the Palm look from top to bottom of the container. I really do like it though! Once I make another with the smaller wick I will post the burn results also.

kalamazoo Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Those are really beautiful. Thanks for posting the pics - always great to see something new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol M Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Those are beauties:D Gorgeous pattern! The thing that struck me about this wax was their description of it as a 'one pour wax'. That is unheard-of in the palm world. Was it really one pour, or did you have to poke holes (to avoid craters) like with other palm waxes?

sharyl55 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Those are some good looking containers. I'm curious too whether you have to poke relief holes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mystical_angel1219 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Those are very cool looking. How is the scent throw with this wax? You inspire me to get a bag to play with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakalex Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 I did not take burn photos. I do have the container I burned and what is left. I will take a pic of that later and post.I did not poke relief holes in the container wax. I did not get any craters. I did poke relief holes in the pillars I made. I may do a test and poke relief holes in one and not the other and see if I see a difference in the burn.Thanks everyone! It is a beautiful wax and the scent throw was awesome....no cure time I burned the next day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
