Tinker-ing Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Hi guys and gals of candle world! I did a search on this but didn't find the answer I was looking for. I am using a new jar - the 3inch Status with J223. I have tried several wicks in this wax but can't seem to get a full MP. The zincs seem to work the best so far but I would like to try a non-zinc wick for this container. I am adding FO @ 8% as I do with my 7.5 oz jar and seem to have no problems with jars under 3 inches in diameter. I am thinking of adding a lower MP soy wax to the J223 to get a softer blend. Any suggestions would be appreciated. TIA everyone!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felixncharlie Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I have used a cd and a cdn 10 and they work for me with a blend I make that is 70% soy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinker-ing Posted December 31, 2008 Author Share Posted December 31, 2008 Thanks! I dropped a CD10 into the jar and so far it seems to be working but I did have to blow out the candle once to trim the wick cause it was starting to smoke. Do you find that you have to trim mid burn with that wick/jar combo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
