What you describe is OK, though a bit unusual with 100% soy and 9% load.geek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy Girl Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I always had good luck with an HTP 93 in these jars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakalex Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I use CB135 and an HTP 83 works well for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stacien Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I don't care what kind of wicking. I will use whatever to maintain at least 1/4 of an inch in that small of a jar. My jars are 9 oz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accents Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 An hour seems a little fast. See how quickly the whole thing burns for you. If you jar doesn't get too hot, and you wax doesn't burn off real fast, it should be okay. I agree it sounds big, but they all work differently for different people.
