Circle Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 You know how we test our soy and palm for a certain time (depending on width of container or pillar) for the 1st burn and subsequent burns, does soy and palm have a memory like paraffin? I was just wondering as I have never just lit a candle and put it out after say 10mins. I always test like we should, but a customer might only burn the candle for a very short time. I know palm wax burns down then out and soy catches up and thought maybe they don't work the same way? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella1952 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I dunno about *memory* but if a candle is burned for short periods of time, then extinguished, it will tunnel. but a customer might only burn the candle for a very short timeThat's why it's important to give them instructions on how to burn a candle properly to get the best efficiency and longevity from it. 'Course there's no guarantee they'll read the instructions or follow 'em, but at least you can say you tried... :undecided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circle Posted July 22, 2008 Author Share Posted July 22, 2008 Thanks, StellaI was just thinking with the 8oz and 16oz travel tins that the customer might only light it in their hotel room for 1/2 and hour before bed. Customers never read instructions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella1952 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Customers never read instructions.You can lead the horse to water, but ya can't force 'em to follow instructions.When they complain, point to the instruction sticker on the bottom of the candle... :whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
