VanillaSniffie Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 How long do you normally let your candles set for before you burn them? I just talked to a lady who said 12 hours and I have read on here that some make sure they set for 24 hours? I am anxious to see this new container I used and by morning it will have set 16 hours. I am wondering if that is good enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGirl Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I use paraffin 4627 and do not ever cure a candle as soon as it's completely cool I test burn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darbla Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I have had some that didn't 'bloom' until 5 weeks later, so I've settled on longer cures are better for me. For example, when I first poured votives of Old Mill's 'Baton Rouge' they were weak. But 5 weeks later they were wonderful.
