soycrazy Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I'm thinking of switching to nature wax since I can avoid the shipping and go to lonestar or taylored concepts to pick it up. Has anyone compared it with ezsoy, because that's what I currently use now. Cargill told me I can use the C3 in cosmetics too and that's what I'm looking for. Also can you use the C3 in tarts or should I try the pillar blend? I use ezsoy right now with my tarts without a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGirl Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I used to use C3 and switched to GB415 (same as ezsoy if I remember correctly) for the same reason you're switching -- I can get the 415 from Peak's and not pay for shipping I don't think you'll notice much of a difference between the two... in my experience they have acted very similarly. I'm getting better throw with the 415 but I think that's just because my technique has gotten better.Just my Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violetsexoticcandles Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Hi there,I have used c-3 for tarts when I have extra wax, but learned the hard way to spray the molds with mold-release first (use plenty of it, too). Also, with certain colors and molds, it won't always come out okay and/or it'll be sticky and cracked.I really love V-1 for tarts/votives. Much easier to get them out of molds and they look better.White tarts seem to turn out fine with C-3, though. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logcabinmomma Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I have used c-3 for tarts. I used a silicone mold, and popped them right out.-Kristi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayshapooh Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I used C-3 when I made tarts but now that I switched to the clamshell packaging I mix C-3 and V-1 so they come out easierSandy~WI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
