Synascents Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Morning everyone!Have been thinking on testing some new waxes and have a question on the IGI Wax 4625 & 4761.I normally use the MP 145 wax when making tarts and votives and was wondering how the other 2 work with the cold/hot throw and overall just opinions on these 2 waxes.Thank You for the response!Stephanie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breanna Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I have used the 4625 for tarts and votives and the hot/cold throw is awesome,,,However I do not know about the second wax. Im sure someone will chime in,,,HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klo Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 4761 is almost impossible to cut to get into the presto. I was given suggestions on freezing it, putting it in a pillow case and hammering it, I don't have time for that. It is suppose to be a one pour wax, so i guess thats why someone would go to all the trouble of using it. I use 4625 and 4794 for votives, did a big marathon test burn on many different FO's and like both waxes. 4794 seemed to burn better/more consistently.

AngelaVA Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I tested 4761 because my local supplier carries it. I couldn't get it to be a one-pour for me, but I have read some things recently and I might not have been pouring hot enough. I also found that the zincs wicks didn't work for me in the 4761. The 36 was too small and the 44 was too big. So, I used the LX wicks (size 12, I think) and it burned great. I got a great throw from this wax once I found the right wick. But if I am going to have to do a repour, my preference would be 4794. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
