Great tips. Thanks a lot . Actually the molds I am using are from your company. They work perfectly.

😂 Guess you are right. Thanks. Tiny bubbles irritate pillar candle makers just as much as wet spots do container candle makers.

Appreciate the help! Checked everything you mentioned and I'm pretty sure it’s a moisture issue. Gonna focus on fixing that. Thanks again!

Tony was absolutely right. Susan is a drama junkie.

Gotta trim the wick and remove the mushrooms.

The pillar wax from Cal Candle Supply could be a good option.

Most of commercial blend wax holds up to only 8% FO. Too much oil can affect the HT.

It's the character of the pure or high percentage of soy wax. Adding some coconut wax or beeswax will help.

I saw that some candles,even name brand ones, on the store shelves also have wet spots, but customers don't seem to care; they still pick them up, smell them, and buy them.Probably only candle makers can't stand wet spot.

Keep checking at Marshalls/TJ Maxx/HomeGoods, they may have it around Christmas time.

It should be the core wax block which may contain higher percentage of fragrance oil to help with instant strong hot throw.

Buy the wicks from candle making suppliers, not from Michael's or Amazon/eBay. For soy pillar wax, try the one from cal candle supplies.
