Wick
Crafted from unbleached cotton and interwoven with a linen thread, CL candle wicks are innovative flat wicks designed to minimise afterglow and smoking while maintaining rigidity. All wicks are 110mm long with a thin paraffin coating for stability.
Usage Recommendations
We recommend working at an ambient temperature of 18 to 25°C.
We recommend heating RCX to 60°C to melt.
Add the fragrance at 60°C and stir for 60 seconds.
The mixture is ready to pour at 38°C into glasses at room temperature.
If the top is uneven once set, you can flash the surface with a heat gun or do a top-up pour to get a clean finish.
Conduct a 2-day first stage of curing for wick testing, keeping the candles at ambient temperature, and a second stage of curing for scent throw for 7 to 14 days.
Disclaimer
Each report shows test results for a set of candles made by Candle Shack’s R&D team for that particular recipe. The test reports are not a guarantee that all candles made to the recipe will burn in exactly the same way. Variables such as ambient temperature, air flow, or the manufacturing process can affect the burning profile of a candle, so it is recommended that candle makers conduct their own testing to ensure that they are satisfied with the performance of their product.
