will1434 Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Hello all,I have 25 pounds of pure soy lying around that I found just too difficult to work with. I would like to mix some paraffin in to make a 70/30 mixture to experiment with. Is grocery store paraffin ok, or should I order something else? :undecidedThanks,Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudiGa Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 You should difinitely order something else. Like J223 or comfort blend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatinDucky Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 It might help to know what kind of soy...for containers or pillars. Does it have a name? You should get a good paraffin if you want good candles. I don't do soy, but there are some threads around here on different mixtures...

I will invest in a good container paraffin... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizbizzyb Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 It really depends on what you like....Get a few samples of different paraffin waxes to test out. See which one blends with the soy you are going to use to your likings the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
