Wedo LX Candle Wick
The Wedo LX candle wick is a very thin flat cotton wick which is suited to both paraffin and natural waxes. It is very effective in paraffin waxes with a low melt point in particular – such as the Chandler Grey PRO Container wax. It is common to find that you must use a much larger size of the LX wick when using a natural candle wax. The Wedo LX wick’s performance can be hindered by large fragrance loads or essential oils.
Options
- Raw (Unwaxed) Wick – Specified number of metres supplied on a cardboard bobbin as a continuous, string-like wick. This format is for you to cut to the length you require and wax yourself.
