soycool Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I have been sticking to 1 oz per lb lately. For some reason I am needing to use more for CS cinnabuns. I am trying 11/2oz per pound. Anyone else using more? I would be curious, same for CS app and maple bourbon.TIANatalie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandgirl Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I thought is was just me with candle nose!! I have recently bumped Cinnamon Buns and Banana Nut Bread up.. Seemed to help... Still LOVE these scents.. So do my customers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakalex Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 What wax are you both using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luci Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I was doing nothing but making and test burning cinnamon bun candles and votives for a few weeks. I started with a bottle of Peaks until I ran out and then started using CS. I used 1 oz pp with both using 4625. I later began feeling that neither fo was very strong and felt it was just me from being around the fo so much. For tarts, I normally use more fo pp, but I don't feel comfortable using a higher rate with a candle.I'm taking a break from this fo for a while!

Luci Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I've been using the 4625 for tarts and using 1.25 oz pp. I also use this wax for votives and have started doing a few pillars. I use 1 oz pp for anything with a wick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
