oakbrookcandles Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 I did a search but most of the information os a few years old. Does anyone use this wax? It is avaliable locally so im thinking of getting into the soy craze.From what im reading from www.naturewax.com the C-1 is a blend of soy and other ingredients to nullify the potential issues of straight soy.Any thoughts?

Stella1952 Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 (edited) From the NatureWax website (which contains a LOT of new information since I last read it a couple of months ago, BTW):The main difference between these waxes is that C-1 consists of a blend of Vegetable Oils, whereas C-3 is 100% Soy Based...Another feature about C-3 is that it has better glass adhesion than other soy waxesSupposedly C-1 contains an amount of palm wax. This makes it more resistant to "frosting," but also causes it to have less container adhesion. C3 is the newer formula which is why the info you found was dated, but there are some folks around who swear by C1... searching the veggie wax forum should turn up some discussion from the last year or so...Buy 10# and give it a try. The only way to get into making soy-based wax candles is to dive in. Edited December 6, 2009 by Stella1952 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
