1260 left over

[TwinMom]

I have some 1260 left over wax, can I use this for floaters? And if so where would I start for wicking? I like the LX series. Never wicked 1260 wax before only used it for canes. Thanks...

I used to use LX8 for floating candles and sometimes LX10 if I was out of LX8, these days because I stock all types of wick I use TL15 for them or TL18 for a slightly bigger flame.

I don't know if that will match your wax, I've never heard of 1260 wax, we don't have too many varieties of wax here in England, basically one each for paraffin pillar and container, soy pillar and container, this works well for what is needed, I've never seen the need for any more than one wax for each group.

Having said that though perhaps I can mention off topic that I have developed and am now marketing a softer paraffin container wax which has 99.9% eliminated the wet spot problem, I've also done the same with soy container wax. I can now make glass containers without a wet spot in sight ! The beauty of it is that the soy is still 100% natural, no paraffin products near it :-) plus it is guaranteed to be GM free, something we all want in these days of corporate greed.
