racolvin Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 The GW website says not to blend the 464 with Beeswax - anyone that can explaine why that is?Also, has anyone else blended their 464 with the coconut oil? I've been trying it now for a few days and so far the results are promising, at least from an appearance perspective. We'll see how the throw works after it cures a bit longer :-)Ronnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berrycreekcandles Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I use 464 and was adding beeswax, I never read where it said not to, But I have switched to the coconut oil as it is much cheaper! So far it is working good for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racolvin Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 Thanks for the reply :-) I don't know why it doesn't recommend mixing with beeswax on the website, which is why I was curious. I agree that the CO is MUCH cheaper! The reason for my curiosity though is because I buy my wicking pre-primed with beeswax, which hasn't been an issue. It just made me wonder so I thought I'd ask Have a great weekend!Ronnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racolvin Posted August 29, 2007 Author Share Posted August 29, 2007 Anyone else using CO with the 464? I've tried using 1/2tbs per lb with the 464 but still get frosting with it. I may try going with 2/3tbs per lb but thought I'd ask if anyone else is getting different results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
