SEP Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I am currently using 464, but still testing since I went with a less expensive tumbler than the ones I was using. I can get the 464 locally, so it keeps my costs down a bit. I need to slow down the burn some, and harden these babies for summer.Does anyone know of a way to harden the 464 a bit? I know the 444 is harder, but I can't get it locally, so I wondered if there is an additive that will work it to get where I want to be. I also remember reading that beeswax and 464 don't "play" well together so I know that isn't an option. Would stearic work, and if yes, what amount do you think I should start with?Any help would be greatly appreciated.Sandi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caramel Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Hi SEP!If you do a search on 464 and Coconut Oil, you may find what you are looking for (either that or parrafin).I am sure someone more knowledgable may be able to speak more on this, though. HTH until they do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEP Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share Posted January 31, 2009 Thanks Caramel. I'll do a search as you suggested about the coconut oil as an additive. I have some in the shop, so if I find any info on it I can jump right on it.Again, thank you for responding.Sandi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
