    Nice demonstration , I had taken an apprenticeship with Cady's Candles in Wisconsin Dells some 22 years back and ran my business successfully for 10 years before taking a job that gave me a pension. I still have all my equipment and supplies in my home and look forward to getting back into it when I retire, so relaxing and best job I ever had.

    One question I do have though is where you buy the glaze and does it have to be heated? Could you use a dip of clear wax instead?

    I found that microcrystalline wax has different grades.. laminating, coating and hardening...which one is best for carving?
    How do u mix the pigment to wax....is it direct or mixed with oil?
    Thanking you in advance and eagerly awaiting for your reply!!!!!

    • @CandlesandSupplies
      @CandlesandSupplies  3 роки тому +2

      The microcrystalline that we use is one designed to make the carving paraffin less brittle and more flexible. I'm not sure what other industries this microcrystalline is used in - we love it for carving! Just mix the pigment directly with the wax and it will blend nicely.

    Hi I would like to ask you question is steric acid and microcrystaline does the same job or no?

    • @CandlesandSupplies
      @CandlesandSupplies  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Alla! Stearic acid hardens a wax and micro wax actually helps make the wax more pliable so they do different jobs. No need to add stearic to carving wax. You don't want the carving wax too hard otherwise it won't carve well. The micro adds some stretch so to speak into the wax so can carve and maneuver it.

    When I dip red into white, some wax bleeds....And over the time white turns pinkish.... Likewise with all colours, but the light one's suffer.
    I m using 145 mp paraffin and keeping it in 160°f range for dipping.
    I found that u r using 141 mp paraffin and keeping it 160-169°f. Still your wax is not bleeding to the other while dipping.
    Is it the microcrystalline effect..Or something else.

      Are you using carving pigments for your color or candle dye? Candle dyes will bleed into each other and pigments will keep their color integrity for years and not bleed.

      Paraffin is flexible so it carves easily. Beeswax can also be used for carving but it is much more expensive. Soy and Palm waxes are very brittle and just break apart when carved so they do not work well.

      We use about 1 oz. in 10 lbs. of wax so maybe you could use .1 oz. per lb. of wax.

      The initial 90 second dip warms the core and each additional layer added keeps it warm for about an 8 to 10 minute carve time.

    Is it safe to leave your wax heating tank going all the time without having to turn it off? I know it takes the wax a long time to heat up, can you leave it on 24-7? I really want to do this just trying to find out as much as I can. Thank you!

    • @CandlesandSupplies

      Yes it is safe to keep your wax heating. Our carving tanks have thermostats set to the ideal carving temperature so there is no danger of the wax getting too hot or burning. :)
