Robyn64 Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Hi again,In reference to my previous post of our shrinkage problem in white pillars. I was told once by a friend , not related to candlemaking or work, that they knew of a person who used white clay in their white pillars.Has anybody ever used this method and if so, what is the result, is there a lot of shrinkage , is a normal 10 % stearine just needed if white clay is used ?Just wondered if anybody else has heard of this or even used white clay in candles before ?Thanks,Robyn :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robyn64 Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 Hi breanna,Thanks for your messages but its not the colour that is the problem its the shrinkage. I had heard somebody used white clay and I dont know why or what it does to a candle. I have bought a white powder from Pourette many years ago which I still have for making whites but never used.Thank you very much for your message ,Take careRobyn :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
