#CandleMaking #464SoyWax #CandleTesting
In our efforts to make better 464 soy candles, this video is a breakdown results from our recent tests of 464 soy wax. In part 1 we focused on appearance and the process of making candles with 464. This Part 2 video focuses more on hot throw, wicking, sinkholes, overall performance of our 464 test candles. Like all waxes, GW 464 soy wax is both good and bad, has its benefits and disadvantages! Both videos work together so I recommend checking out both (linked below).
