Tips & Troubleshooting
- Because this wax is designed to shrink as it cools (for easy mould release), pillar, votive, and tealight candles will usually require two or three pours.
- This wax is not recommended for rubber or silicone moulds, as the stearin content will reduce mould lifespan over time. For candles made in silicone or rubber moulds, use Chandler Grey 280P with added Bipol-VB.
- Add your fragrance oil just before pouring to minimise fragrance evaporation.
- Always "key" your candle between pours when making pillar or votive candles.
- Remember: container wax is designed to adhere to the container, while pillar wax is designed to contract for easy mould release.
