sassy906 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 I just ordered supplies to start making tea lights and in one of my books they say to use stearic acid. Do I need this or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugenia Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Depends upon what kind of wax you ordered. Some blends already have the additives in them, some straight waxes required stearic or vybar.e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissMary Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 I don't know anything about this, but I can tell you, they will probably want more detail than that.What brand and number of wax? I don't use soy, but I understand there are several each of brands, and several each of the numbers that can vary additives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violetsexoticcandles Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 I use C3 soy (nature wax) and never add additives for my containers or tealights, because I never had issues with it needing anything. Now the V1 was a whole other story.... You may have better luck posting on the veggie wax forum if you're asking questions related to soy wax. Just an FYI. Good luck.

Stella1952 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Yeah - you right, Miss Mary! Welcome, sassy! What brand of soy wax are you using, Sassy? Have you poured any yet, or are you still reading? You may want to do some reading on the veggie wax board, too. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started to respond, got distracted (for quite a while) and then hit "Submit Reply" when I got back to the computer. My bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
