grama Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 What is the best wax for making rustics? I use IGI 4625 with 3 TBS Steric and pour into a chilled mold but my rustics just do not look like I want them to. Is a straight paraffin better?

Trish Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 I would definitely try a straight paraffin. I've personally never used a blend to make rustics, although I've heard that some can accomplish the effect, I think you would get the results you're looking for much easier!

grama Posted September 26, 2007 Author Share Posted September 26, 2007 Thanks Trish - that is what I was beginning to think. Haven't made that many but the few I have made are not as pretty as the ones I see posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judyvega Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 I use IGI 1343, personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted September 26, 2007 Author Share Posted September 26, 2007 That's good to know judyvega cause IGI is the only wax I use. Guess I will have to get a box of that on my next shopping venture at CS:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
