beans Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Currently doing a 50 / 50 blend 464 & 4630. Im getting good results using ECO wicks but is there some other wicks I could be using ????? Making containers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwantItgreen Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 If ECO's are working for ya, then use them. I use ECO's and CD's in my parasoy blend. I haven't been able yet to determine that one is much better than the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProudMarineMom Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I'm using those two waxes as well, just at different percentages. I'm doing 90/10 (and will be testing 95/05) with the majority being 464. I really like this wax and just haven't been able to tame it at 100% soy. I'm just using the 4630 to stabilize the wax with the frosting and morphing. Has done really well at the 10%. Going to try the 5% just because.Anway, with this wax I prefer the Eco's. I think I get a better hot throw and the fragrance seems to be more true. Problem I have is some mushrooming and I think the wick gets too hot in the bottom half of the container. CD wicks have a wonderful burn. Nice curl, no mushroom. Only I don't think the HT is as good and I get a slight wick/fuel smell. Or, at least I think so. Could be I have candle nose by now. Need to get some of these containers to my testers for some feedback.Depending on the fragrance oil, you can get a nice burn from the LX's. I've tried HTP's and RRD's and wasn't impressed. But, others have used them successfully. Haven't tried any zinc wicks.Hth.J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beans Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 Thanks. Thats why I went to a mix because of the frosting with 464 straight. started at 80/20 464/4630 then 70/30 now at 50/50 i really like it. H/T is very good but I want it to be great.
