I like you're vid. Thank you for testing
I love love LOVE your videos! I've been making candles for the past 2 months, so I`m still very much a novice, and your videos helped me to decide what I`m going to test. I also tested RCX, SCX, Kerasoy, and Golden Wax 464, but I`m now tempted to test this wax too, as I`m still searching for the perfect wax. Greetings from Croatia!
Hi there lovely , thank you for commenting! Happy new years! Thank you soo soo much , It makes me incredibly happy and grateful that you love my videos! I am so grateful that my videos have helped , what an incredible feeling to know that my videos are of help. You have an excellent selection of waxes to test , they will not disappoint. I definitely recommend testing them with TB or stabilo wicks as they worked the best with me! I would love to visit Croatia at some point in my life especially at your beautiful beaches 🩷 thank you for supporting me , I appreciate you 🩷
Would be interesting to see if you planned on testing the new 464 from Candle shack, it’s the same formula as original 464 but they’ve worked with the manufacturer AAK to produce the was using European soy rather than American soy, European soy has higher standards, and it’s supposedly producing better results for quite a few people
Ordered a tub, will see how the wicks go.
Soo interesting you said this! I had someone reach out to me to say the same thing , it’s definitely going to be a wax that I will buy and test out , it would be so interesting to know how it performs!
@@megbeg0204 let us know how it goes!
@@mawahebhome To be honest i've never been a 464 user as although it's a legend in candlemaking, i've heard so many stories of batches producing different results where people test test test, finally get a product they love, then the next time they buy the wax it stops throwing etc. I know 464 is one of those waxes where people who love it absolutely swear by it, and others dislike it. But CS have said that this blend is far more consistent, likely due to the higher quality standards in the EU. Would be great to see!
@@mawahebhome s41 works best when poured at really low temperatures like 31-34c and that gives nice smooth tops more often. The New EU464 is very very nice if you haven't tried it. Smooth surface for the majority of fragrances and easy to use. Really creamy smooth resets too.
Happy New Year 🎉 loving your videos as usual 😊 can I ask where you get your TB wicks from? I've never tried these yet (must be the only ones 😂)but would be interested to see how they work in the spare waxes I have. Thanks x
Happy New years 🎉 I hope that you’re well ☺️ I get my TB wicks from candle shack , they have been working wonders with me! Definitely alot better than ECO and TCR lol where they burn so hot 🤣 yes definitely give them a go x as usual lovely thank you for your support 🤍
@@mawahebhome I went for it and ordered some 😂
I am curieus how the wicks performance is when the candle is near the end. I would love to see the testing all the way till there is no wax left. I have so many wicks perform great the first half and them the flickering begins 😮 . So before I buy the TB wicks I would love to hear ❤ but Maybe your wick wax combi is just spot on. I use rapeseed or rcx
Hello lovely, nice to see you comment under
my video 🤍 An excellent point , I still have the candles and burning them , one of my CL wicks candle started flickering towards the middle of my burn test but it wasnt a harsh flicker where it was going high or causing soot or leaving soot marks in my candle jar. My other CL wick was larger and did cause soot but the flame height remained good but for me this is a fail for my burn test. TB wicks are going strong! So strong! They did start flicker on my 6th round of burn test but I welcomed it because it wasn’t a harsh , dangerous flame , no soot on the flame or soot residue on my jar ( which is a pass for me) 🤍☺️ i love that you use RCX wax , one of my favourite waxes to test with recently and I find that it works well with Stabilo wicks 🤍 I hope this helps! Thank you for supporting me and please reach out if I can be of any help x
Sorry if I missed it, and I know I will have to test it for myself, but it's so nice seeing video material, Which TB wick size was best? I wonder which one looked best after the 4 hours, and I would say TB14, but I suppose TB12 will catch up eventually, so which one would you actually go for?
Hi Lala , thank you so much for your lovely comment! You did not miss anything, please
make no apologies! I would personally go for the TB12 as I get the most out of my candle, like you said it caught up! TB14 could be burning a little faster x
@@mawahebhome thank you for your reply, I’m going to buy the TB wicks. Have been using CL. Would you say hot throw of S41 is stronger than RCX?
@@Lala-kd8kd Pleasure , always happy to help! I have indeed been using CL wicks , they work beautifully with my RCX and S41 wax , oooo good question , I actually haven’t thought to compare but I am making a batch of candles this weekend to burn for next week so will definitely let you know! I enjoy RCX with my Essential oil candles , smells incredible 😍
Hey. Love you videos. Have you tested a 40cl jar with kerasoy wax? If so what wick have you used?
Heey, thank you so much! I appreciate you! I haven’t personally tested the 40cl candle jars , Hows your experience with testing 40cl jars? My main jars are 20cl and 30cl , I should try the 40cl , I’d be curious to see!
I love TB wicks...I use RCX and can go up to TB 16 with certain scents in 30cl's. I don't think customers look at the tops..the candles are normally on a fireplace or a shelf so they can't see the tops
I completely agree , I have had excellent results with TB wicks with RCX , Kerax and now S41! They have been really coming through for me
Tried and failed. The wick CL14 was too big. Used Ruby Ruby F/O 22g and 220g wax. Heat to 60 mixed F/O for 3min, poured 43* into heated jars (32), cured for 2days. I’ve changed for a CL12 wick and will try burn testing in about 2days 🤞
@@megbeg0204 thats okay , there are no
Failures, only lessons! Try different wick series , fragrances and temperature! I promise you, you will get there in no time! Patience is key 🤍 Whats your FO percentage? Do you use 10% or 8% ?
Thanks x
for how long did you let it cure and how long would you advice?
@@Lala-kd8kd Hey , I cured them for 7/8 days, 3 days to 7 days is more than enough curing! I think 14 days is a little too much and it’s a waste of time personally but I know some candle makers prefer to test their candles at 3, 7 and 14 days x
@@mawahebhome I’ve tested mine after 4 days. 4 candles and no HT at all. S41 wax. Wick is different for all 4, the flame is beautiful and the meltpool too. Tested Coffee Mocha (10%), Sandalwood Mandarin (9%), Pina Colada (10%) and Lavender Patchouli (8%). Absolutely 0 HT. Idk what I did wrong. I know I could try different % but to me it’s weird that I’d get no HT at all rn. So frustrating 😒
@@Lala-kd8kd On a positive note, your FL is good , it shouldn’t be that! Also , choice of fragrances sounds incredible 😍 I know that it’s frustrating but we can figure it out together, what temperature did you pour your FO in your wax and wicks , what are the wick families you are using?
