VanillaSniffie Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I read somehwere that Soy wax is capable of taking up to 10 - 12% Fo Load. True or false? Because I have this Mulberry, thought I had it done but I am not happy with the scent. Please answer soon, I want to get this before I go to bed. Also, does re-melting (and re-melting, and re-metling....) wax after bad test burns take away some of the scent? I am assuming it would because the scent would burn off? Correct me if I am wrong. Thanks for you help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella1952 Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 What brand of soy wax are you using and are you using any additives? Not all soys are recommended to take the same FO load. Many can be made to carry more by using additives.Mulberry is a tough scent. I have found two sources that I thought really were dead-on accurate; the other 5 or 6 I tested smelled okay, but they were NOT mulberry... I have not noticed that remelting once or twice diminishes the throw a lot if one is careful not to heat it up too much on the remelt...

VanillaSniffie Posted January 23, 2008 Author Share Posted January 23, 2008 Yeah this FO is good in the bottle. Was good with the first small candle I made but bad with this so i am pretty sure the wick is burning the wax and the smell is gone out from remelts.
