What kind of wax do I have to use for candle-making in a metal mold?
I’ve used parrifin wax but the result of the candle that comes out is bad. I’ve had to get the candle out with a hair dryer a few times and it is a mess. Please help.
I have been making candles for 8 years. The first thing to try- when it wont come out of the mold is to cool it. Put it in the fridge for 15-30 minutes or the Freezer for 10 minutes. Do not leave it in the freezer for longer-or it will crack. The wax shrinks when it is cooler and can be removed easier. A silicone spray made for candle making is best but PAM will work. ALSO…heating your molds before you pour into them, helps them as well. Put them on a cookie sheet in a warm oven-not hotter than 175 degrees for 5 minutes. Be sure to use an oven mitt to take out and I remember that your molds will be very hot. Enjoy making your candles…its a blast!!
