Sharon in KY Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 I make embeds with clean wax but will be running out in a while. The thing is they bleed into my soy wax and I want to look for a wax that doesn't bleed. I make soy candles and tarts but if I have to use a Paraffin for embeds, then so be it. I only have a couple of dark shapes this affects. Cherry and blueberry cause the container wax they go in is so much lighter. Also my soy bleeds when making two or tri color candles. Maybe a thin layer of another wax so I would not be changing my whole candle. If anyone knows of a wax that will not bleed please let me know, thanks...

countrysoaper Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 i just use paraffin with a high melt point additive, my goodness, for the life of me I can't remember the name of the additive. I will email you back later. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
americancandles Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Have you tried Ecosoys Pure? That's what I have been using and I did a two-toned dreamsicle candle, orange on the bottom and white on the top and it turned out great, no bleeding. I did let the bottom set up for about 4-6 hours to ensure it was fully cooled. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made some layers last year and they are great for awhile but as time goes by.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
