Review on 🌱 Organic 10lb Bag of Soy 464 Wax by Mike Wallace

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Makes great candles

I make candles and sell them at the farmer's market. I've bought Β£20.05 candles many times only to finally read it's the same brand of wax for Β£464.00. So far this is the best I've found. I've bought other 444s and one from etsy, they crack in small votive sizes and burn after blistering and bumping white on top. It doesn't, and this is the best option, here's why: Suitable for both small and large candles. It remains homogeneous and melts well. And it cools well, not too fast and not too slow. Keeps color well Emits smell well Even after finishing, sometimes it's good to leave a little more when cooling because if the temperature is too low at the last vow, it may not be as smooth as a lake and you can use it afterwards finish completely cool for a perfect finish. Wax does not melt in the sun. Just a little sweaty. The color stays good if you use what I use and the color blocks are best from Candlescience. Heat to about 180, add coloring, allow to cool for a few minutes, add flavoring oil and stir, let stand a minute and pour at about 130 degrees. One filling is usually enough for me. Seems to stick well to containers and like all soybeans it's white so gives off pastel colors unless you use a lot of paint. I also like the color you get by adding some forest green, it looks like sea foam. So beautiful. Either way, this wax looks best when fired and if your wick is the right size it will melt evenly and burn for a long time in the bright firelight. Until the edges turned white and stuck to the sides when burned. This is the best wax I can find on Revain at the highest price. Finally found my source. Thank you gold stamp. :)
