Do certain dyes cause you to wick up?

Rainwater from CS is giving me fits and I know it can't be a heavy fo. I have to go quite a bit higher on my wick size with this f/o and the flame always looks like it's going to drown out. I even re-poured it with another batch because I thought I screwed up.

I did use a fluorescent blue dye chip with this FO though. I am going to pour it without dye tomorrow and see what happens. I normally use liquid dye.

Have you guys experienced this. Does this happen to you when you use dye chips? Or maybe it's the fluorescent dye chip or just the brand I am using!

What wax and fragrance load are you using?

Flourescent dye chips CANNOT be used in container candles. They clog the wick. Bug

WOW, That's good to know. Thanks for the info Bug.

What Bug said. Flourescent dyes use pigment that clogs wicks. They are designed more for candles you don't want to burn like forever pillars or overdip in cut 'n curl.

I am glad I posted the question. That explains why I am having such a hard time wicking that container. Glad I didn't buy but one cotainer of this stuff!

Anyone have any suggestions on what to use for vibrant colors? I am thinking like a fun orange for coco mango and maybe a fun blue color. I'll probably post a new thread about this!
