Question 2: The firebox is too small to tunnel or burn unevenly
Tunneling occurs when the core wire used is too small and the flame cannot adequately melt the entire surface of the candle.
This causes the candle to burn unevenly, a small flame, a faint odor and the candle to go out.
So if you want to know how to burn candles evenly or how to burn candles properly, check out the solutions below.
Solution: The best way to repair a spark plug tunnel is to use a larger heart
Question 3: Frosting on the surface of the finished candle
Solution: Add a small amount of palm wax:
We have found that using a small amount of palm wax on top of candles can reduce and remove frost on soy candles.
All you need to do is add 2 teaspoons of palm wax per 1 kg of wax.
Then use a lower pour temperature to pour completely melted, which will help minimize and eliminate candle freezing.
Question 4: Shear, shrinkage, bubbles and wet spots
Sometimes when we fill the wax, the adhesion between the wax and the tank (sometimes called a suction cup) is poor – bubbles form on the side of the candle.
This is more evident when using a transparent container. It seems that there are bubbles between the tank and the candle, which seems like a slightly wet phenomenon.
Solution
Follow the steps below to resolve the issue
Low temperature casting. Note: It is important to remember to stir the wax constantly when pouring in the colder so that it does not solidify.
The dirty surface of the glass container can also cause this problem, so if necessary, clean the glass container with wax before filling.
Allow the candle to cool naturally at room temperature (18-25 degrees), it may take a little longer, but the effect of removing the cup is sent.
Problem 5: Surface cracks
Solution
Follow the instructions to resolve this issue
Low temperature casting. Note: It is important to remember to stir the wax constantly when pouring in the colder so that it does not solidify.
Allow the candle to cool naturally at room temperature (18-25 degrees), it may take a little longer, but the effect of removing the cup is sent.
Once the wax is filled, gently pull the heart before inserting it, but avoid too much.
