J50,are you having a lot of shrinkage when the jar has set up.I am having to use the heat gun on every container,then it's at least 1/2 inch below the pour line.I don't know what to do.I guess I could save some wax and do a second pour. Using the heat gun on every container is alot of work,and time.I need some suggestions.

Thanks,Anna

I use J50 and I dont have shrinkage in my 8oz jelly jars, BUT I do have the same problem with my 12 sided, 12oz jars. Dont know the how to sove it tho:(

I think a second pour is necessary on the wider jars.

Anna, I used to use j-50. had the same problem with most of my keepsake jars. had to repour them to bring back to fill line, and then hit them with heat gun to remove residue lines at top. However, now I use j-300. since switching, I have had no problems! HTH

Thanks for the replys,I love J50,and I get it locally with no shipping.J50 used to not do this.Last night I made candles,and when the top set up,I took the wick holders off,that seemed to help with the shrinking.

I've noticed it with my J50 too. I've been filling the jars a little higher so they end up being where I want them. I've also been getting air pockets so I push a skewer into every candle and zap with the heat gun just to be safe. I really like this wax and don't want to switch so I'm just dealing with it right now. I get mine locally too.
