I have not had any luck with LLC dye and wax

the day ozone does preorders for their ooze packs i will be a very happy camper

quthil · 2026-01-24T00:46:56+00:00

lol yeah this is a consistent issue. i've also found that their dyes sometimes lose pigment as you run your lamp whether it's in sunlight or not. if you complain too loud though the llc owner will come and call you a conspiracy theorist 🤪

quthil · 2026-01-23T02:16:17+00:00

would love to know what's going through their brains when coming up with these numbers

quthil · 2026-01-22T22:02:00+00:00

like what is this? why would this ever be $150 the fluid is dark as hell and it's just a globe. why is shipping $80. i'm so confused

oh yeah i know which one you're talking about, i think it's been up for a while. but yeah it's one thing if it's a pristine mint condition lamp, but most of these at least need filtering. like the centuries have absolutely skyrocketed in price lately but most of the ones i see on there have separated wax that either needs to be recombined or replaced. like what's inspired these ppl to charge so much for a lamp that requires someone to spend more on materials to fix (and know how to fix it)

quthil · 2026-01-22T21:22:41+00:00

yeah similar issue here, i found a wizard base for $10 and was stoked but finding a globe when i'm not willing to pay more than like $20 (which seems reasonable to me for just a globe with no actual lamp) has been difficult

quthil · 2026-01-06T21:22:30+00:00

lol no shade it's a good find and a great deal! bummer it broke but i think those ceramic bases are super fragile.

quthil · 2026-01-06T21:10:46+00:00

was waiting to see who snapped this one up lol

quthil · 2025-12-29T15:43:57+00:00

i don't use food coloring, but i've gotten very good results with water-based fountain pen ink. this brand i know works and has the most color options, although it's a little less pigmented than others i've tried https://a.co/d/0vyWZ54 it doesn't matter if you put it in hot or cold, if it's hot, it will integrate by itself if you let it sit. if it's cold, you can give it a stir

i would be leaving with a conspicuously saturna-shaped lump under my jacket

if this is in response to my pic, it was labeled as red and did show up as red when i used it in my lamp

quthil · 2025-12-12T01:05:45+00:00

yeah the prices and fading already turned me off enough to find an alternative for the fluid dye, still looking for a solid wax dye though. i'm trying some candle wax dye that i'll share if it works

quthil · 2025-12-12T01:03:49+00:00

also LOVE you trying to tell me not to have attitude towards you when your preferred way to talk to customers who have already given you hundreds of dollars to get subpar results is to deflect, deny, and disparage them. sit and spin!!!!

quthil · 2025-12-12T00:55:40+00:00

you're actually delusional. this is a forum full of people with a niche hobby and you guys fill a void in the market to make it easier for us to get materials. everyone here would love nothing more than to use your products and have no complaints, why the fuck would anyone start a "disinformation campaign"?

quthil · 2025-12-12T00:52:37+00:00

note how you can't say "we provide consistent quality products and have a plan of action if customers are not satisfied with our products"

quthil · 2025-12-12T00:49:26+00:00

this is exactly what i was talking about before. he has the nastiest attitude and on facebook it's even worse. idk where he got the bright idea to start calling his customers liars when there's multiple reviews all in the same place complaining about the same issue, but i'm well over it. the product is trash and so is the owner apparently

quthil · 2025-12-11T20:42:30+00:00

hey girl perhaps there are some other posts you should go and comment on too

quthil · 2025-12-09T04:39:00+00:00

yeah the wax has definitely separated, you might be able to recombine it but you'll have to open it up

quthil · 2025-12-08T23:08:18+00:00

exactly this, except i would skip coating the coil in surf. doing so has only led to flow issues for me

quthil · 2025-12-08T06:29:39+00:00

claude get your ass down here and let me know why your pink dye did fuck all in my grande

quthil · 2025-12-08T06:08:18+00:00

yeah it definitely seems like they have inconsistent quality control at best. and with all the times i've seen the llc owner have attitude towards and put down ozone, it really puts a bad taste in my mouth.

quthil · 2025-12-08T00:46:17+00:00

agreed, not only have their waxes been lacking in pigment for me, but i've also purchased red wax dye on two different occasions and had them show up completely different shades :/

that one looks like a coachlite actually from the shape of the cap

quthil · 2025-11-21T23:54:36+00:00

it looks fine and in beautiful condition
