scifichik Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 What FOs are you unhappy with?Some FOs are more soy-friendly than others, so it's a testing period to determine which of your favorite scents will work.CandleScience has this nice "soy rating" system they measure their fragrances by, and a couple (like dreamsicle and another I cannot remember the name of right now) are not recommended for use with soy.

8-GRAN-ONES Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 i tried about every thing possible to try to get a better HT..beeswax..palm enhancer...ect...i finally decided to just use my wax as it was..if a fo didn't have a good ht..i went on to the next one..i use gb 415...and you will go thru lots and lots of fo's that do not have a good ht with this wax..but i think all waxes are this way to a certain extent..i tried even mixing the different types of gb soy waxes..so the best advise i can give is check here on recomendations of people that uses your wax type...and just test..test..and test some more...i have right now 20 different fo's, test curing right now..i will be happy if i get 5-10 that do well for me..but they all smell wonderful..in the wax..

Candybee Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Are you letting the candles cure before test burning? Some FOs cure in 24-48 hours while others can take a week or longer. And like others have mentioned you have to be prepared to do a lot of sampling to find oils that throw well in soy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
