Fluffy Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I use (J223) what ever the new wax is IGI 1433? cannot remember, but making containers in glass jars with pink dye. Have used both chips and liquid. All goes well except after about a week of sitting on the shelf they start to turn a horrible shade of orangie pinkish brown. What is happening. I have added plenty of UV inhibitor.Please tell me what is going on here. Thank you in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countrycandles Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I use J50 and mine are doing the same thing. They didn't use to do this. :undecided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bugtussle Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Peak's Pk Sugar is a good fo. Some pinks are a little funky, try just a tiny bit of red instead. Never happened to me. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fern Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I have the same problem with pink sugar in my J50/OK6228 tarts. They start out looking a beautiful soft pink color and then gradually over time they discolor...that is...with tarts that have already been packaged and have been sitting around for awhile. Don't know why it is, but it only happens with the Pink Sugar FO. I've had many other candles and tarts that I have dyed pink and they don't discolor...I don't get it either.:undecided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
