how do you determine the right size wick since for these molds? Having a hard time figuring it out because diameter is so strange!
how much wax does 1 cactus use?
Where did you get the molds? 🤔
Do you have to have stearic acid or can you just adjust the ratio? Great video!
My silicone molds are way firmer than this, and I can't get them to fold over like that to get the candles out. Where do you get your molds from, how do I know if buying online if theyre going to be soft like this or stiff like what I've ended up with?
we got some harder molds and had to cut them down the side and use rubber bands to secure them, but we're having trouble with the wax coming out nice and shiny even using additives. We've been making candles since 1993 and having a heck of a time with these molds. We've used metal and two part plastic and never have a problem, so not sure what's up with our wax, additives, temperature or whatever. If anyone has ideas of what we're doing wrong with our wax, we could sure use your advice.
