charmcandleco Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 I just ordered some CDN wicks from CC. I normally use CD wicks. I know that CDNs burn a little hotter than CD wicks. So what my question is what size should I start with in a 7.5oz Tumbler, which is 2 18/16" wide? I know that the wax I use and Fo/dye combo makes a big difference as to what size wick. Just wanting a starting point from anyone that uses these wicks. Thanks in advance!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimmeroo Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Here is a chart that I got from a post a long time ago..it has helped me alot!http://www.wicknclip.com/recommendations.html#p700Kim... maybe start out with a 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_35550 Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 What kind of wax? I would normally use a 10 in my wax and that might be a little hot for different fos. I have used both wicks and have never noticed an apprciable difference in their performance. I like the cdn wicks because they are treated to resist the corrosive nature of soy wax. You might even look at an 8 and go up from there. HTHSteve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgreeson Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 With 464 wax 8 oz container I use cdn 12 or 10. I would do one of each of those sizes if I were you. I love the CDNs sooo much more than any other wick- even the CDs...Hope you do too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charmcandleco Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 (edited) I Use the 444 container wax. Thanks for the starting point. Thank you for the wick chart that will come in handy. I truly hope that I love them as well. I'm thinking they are going to be a better combo than the CD wicks.
