eugenia Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Just for kicks, I mixed 70% nameless paraffin with 30% soy of the same nature. Added 3 TBS of stearic per lb and 1 oz of White Tea & Ginger FO. I never expected these results! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sally Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Looks good Eugenia, how does it burn?If it burns & throws well it'll be great for using up that anonymous wax.....I hate wasting anything!Sally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tara Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 That's beatuful. Waste not want not:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugenia Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 That's beatuful. Waste not want notYeah, but that's not the point. I never thought that soy could do this for me ('cause I never tried). At any rate, if I can come up with a workable para-soy blend, it will be great for marketing. I'll let this one cure for a bit, then see how it burns. e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
