Jury is still out but…..

I figured I’d buy a small bag and give it a try. Ive been interested in trying a soy/coconut blend for a while so this was a good time. Well, to start with it was a dry flake (not sticky like the 464 has been lately) which was nice and melted a bit faster than the regular soy. I usually pour a bit cooler than most due to the room I make candles in so after i poured and my candles cooled the tops were awful. I’ve never had candles tops look so bad. It’s hasn’t been 2 weeks yet so I haven’t lit them. The scent throw while making them was really strong so I’m cautiously optimistic. I will try again and pour hotter to see if the tops will fix themselves. If they are improved with a warmer pour temp then I will change my review. It would be really nice to have 1 wax for candles AND melts. Fingers crossed
Hot/cold throw issues

Did 2 tests using this wax with the same fragrance and scent load. The first time I got a very strong cold throw while curing the first 12 hours, adhesion issues using a glass which I did not preheat, and after about five or six days as usual no matter what my wax blend is, the cold throw dramatically diminished. The hot throw was sporadic. Second test, poured around 180degrees, and had absolutely no adhesion issues, a nice even top except for a slight eruption around the wood wick...however, from the time I poured this to the time it was light, it had almost nothing in the way of a cold throw and no hot throw whatsoever. I really hoped this one would be the winner for me. I got this as part of the four pack coconut wax kit and I am hopeful that another blend might give superior results.
