pariate Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Hello all I'm quite new, have been "lurking" for about a month, reading the boards and benefiting from your collective wisdom I wonder if you could help me with something please? This is probably going to sound like a very stupid question, for which I apologise! I have read that the smaller NT wicks (NT16, NT20) are successful in ESPB candles up to 65mm. Should I take it that the larger NT wicks aren't suitable for ESPB wax, or am I reading too much into it?! Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accents Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I would take those as suggested wick starting points for 65mm diameter and under candles. If they have larger wicks, then those would be used for larger diameter candles. I haven't heard of any wick not being suitable in a certain kind of wax, though some are preferred over others. Of course, in your testing, you may find their suggestions to be a bit (or more than a bit) off.Hope that helps, as I'm not familiar with NT wicks or ESPB wax, but it shouldn't make a difference with the answer.Welcome to boards! Good to have you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pariate Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 Thank you Amy I appreciate your feedback. It's good to be here! Since taking up candle making I am quickly learning the art of patience... Not something that comes easily to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
