I liked the idea of putting the “ice cubes” in fridge Use zinc centered wicks with Gel Wax and you’ll get rid of the sooting

Oh and also, that’s how I put my wicks on. I use a pen shell, I have a couple that work really good. One piece, like yours

Thanks John I have been retired long enough for the Army to change the style. My son gave me one of the new t-shirts.

Hi I just realized this was a year ago. I didn’t read all the comments, I read some, but gel wax is made of mineral oil and polymer resin. For the question, if you can add gelatin to make it stronger.. you could also buy high density gel wax. I’m not sure what yours is, but for the guy that had the question, high density gel wax can stand alone. I love your video though. Thank you!

I think I would just cut an acetate sheet with a hole for the wick to set on the tops of the candles until they are burned

Hi there. Just a note. Always use gloves. Oils from your hands can make it murky. Hope this helps. I also bought wooden spoons then thank goodness found out NOT to use wood as it contains air and will cause bubbles

Yes it's the same way as long as you get it from the same company that I just looked up it is the same stuff is made from polymer resin and mineral oil

Hey captain Mike, I want to make a gelli plate using the stuff, could I add more gelatine to make it more durable?
@CaptMike

Stephanie, I'm not sure what the gel wax is made of and I don't know of a thickner. You could try adding soy wax (melted) to the melted gel waz and see what happens. I know the soy will make the gell more opaque.

How do you make the salt look around the glass?
@CaptMike
@CaptMike 3 года назад
I used aloe to make rock salt stick to the rim. You could also use white glass frit or plastic beads, but I can see where that might present a problem around children or pets. Thanks for watching.

Hi Can anyone recommend some good wicks? I got some cheap wicks to start off with, and they are only burning one spot of the candle. Please and thank you!
@CaptMike
@CaptMike 4 года назад
I purchase my wicks here: rusticescentuals.com/. How a candle burns is determined by the wick size, number of wicks, type of wax/soy, type of fragrance and diameter of the candle. If Rustic can't help, go on RU-vid and check out the tutorials.

Sabrina, please tell more. I have melted a lot of wax, both soy and gel in my microwave with no problems. I have however had Pyrex glass bust, so yes, be careful.
