Directory of Waxes and Wicks Tested

Cargill CG-3 with CD-18 wick in 4" ceramic jar

Notes: Burned fine with great scent throw, but didn't melt side to side.

Recommendation: Test with a larger wick...perhaps a CD-20...or double wick with two CD-10s

Submit YOUR wax and wick test results!
There are countless combinations of wax and wick and containers or molds. When you do a test of a wick, wax and/or container, use the user submission form to give me your test results. I'll post them in the Wick/Wax table for others to use and learn from.
