SharonA Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 What's the secret to get unscented votives out of the molds. I'm using a straight paraffin mp about 130. They won't release from the molds and I've even put them in the fridge for about 30 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnjieBurdett Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Have you tried gently squeezing them while rolling them in the palms of your hands? it never fails for me on the stubborn little monkeys Anjie,x. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane42 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 We had to put ours in the freezer for a bit, then let them "thaw" for a few minutes and gently get them out - otherwise they cracked.We don't have mold release - we had never had this problem until we did the unscented - but I am thinking we should try that the next time we make the unscented votives!

debscent Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I think I recall someone saying mineral oil (you need the oil for the release). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
