THIS IS FOR 5 YARDS OF 48 PLY FLAT BRAIDED CANDLE WICK. THIS WICK IS SUITABLE FOR CANDLES UP TO 2 INCHES in DIAMETER. Remember if a candle smokes the wick is too big, if a candle floods the wick is too small. Trial and error will get you a perfect candle. I GIVE DISCOUNT ON ALL WICK AND TABS 30p EACH ADDITIONAL ITEM. A few candle making tips. You can make candles in yoghurt pots. Trial and error will get you a perfect candle. If a candle smokes the wick is too big. If a candle floods the wick is too small. An additive like stearin will make your candle burn better and last longer. 10% or 5% is all you need. Add perfume just before pouring a candle. Don ’t put perfumed wax in rubber moulds.If you are using bits of candles to melt down bear in mind that these candles probably have no additives added to them and they are probably a low melting point wax. Then you would have to adjust the wick size to a smaller size. If you have a candle in a ridged mould and you can ’t get it out, put it in the freezer for a couple of hours. If that don’t work then you will have to put very hot water on the mould. The candle will be ruined.Always top up candles by inserting a wicking needles around the wick as wax shrinks and if you don ’t top your candle up then the inside around the wick will be hollow and it won’t burn right.THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF MAKING A CANDLE. PRICKING AROUND THE WICK, LETTING THE AIR BUBBLES OUT AND TOPPING THE CANDLE UP. ALL CANDLES NEED TOPPING UP, EVEN LITTLE FLOATERS. I USE ALL THE WICK I SELL AND ADD 5% OR 10% OF STEARINE. YOU CAN EVEN USE LESS. Flat Braid Candle Wick is designed for use in taper and pillar candles. This candle wick gives a slight curl when burning, which reduces carbon buildup and makes wick self-trimming. Flat Braid candle wick is constructed of 100 % natural fibers and chemically treated to improve candle burn qualities. |
