Wicks, of course!

Thu, 10/23/2008 - 18:01 — powderblueboutique

Ok, I have had 3 bad candles so far with wicks. I use an all natural Soy wax that has no added botanicals. I am currently just making 8 oz, with 1/2 oz FO, and one drop of color. The diameter of my tin is 3 1/4". I recently ordered 4 different types of wicks. I should receive them tomorrow or so. Here is the list:

HTP104 paper core natural wick
PK15 paper core natural wick
HTP93 paper core natural wick
HTP83 paper core natural wick

Which of these would work the best, if any? Much help would be appreciated! :o

WICKS

Hi Im pretty new to candle making myself but maybe this will help. I use htp-105 on the 8 oz. jelly jars and have had great results with them. I have already sold 24 jars with that wick all different scents and colors and so far no problems. Hope this can help atleast maybe a start. :)
