Need some advise

[Anna]

Let me see if I can explain this,I am testing some new fo's,and the I am about to pull my hair out.16 oz apoth,J50 wax.

clean cotton 8 %,two 44-24z

1st burn,4 hrs-good

2nd,trim wicks short,lite,smokes

I know this is dumb question,but do I need to change to a differant kind of wick?I used 8%,because it seemed to be a light scent.

plumeria 6% two 44-24z

1st burn good,4 hrs

same as above

juicy pineapple,6 %,two 44-24z

same as above

They all had a good throw the frist burn,they will burn fine on 2nd burn if the wicks are trim real short,but customers will not do this.Is there a smaller zinc for a container?I hate soot on a jar.lol:o

Thanks,Anna

Thanks everyone for you help. I changed the wicks.I have a sampler pack from Wick It.I used two of their wicks.So far they are burning good.

Hi Anna

Zinc wicks are notorious for smoking. I've never used those wicks from Wick It, but when testing if they give you a good burn with no smoke.....you're on a roll!! Good luck and Happy New Year!!
