Packaging, Storage, and Handling
For ease of use, store at 15-25°C (59-77°F). Protect from extreme heat and cold; prolonged storage at temperatures over 32°C (90°F). and under 5°C (41°F) should be avoided.
Use Instructions
Melting
The wax may be melted at about 70°C (158°F) to incorporate colors and fragrances. Higher temperatures are permissible but heating the wax above 90°C (194°F) for prolonged periods is not recommended.
Pouring
The ideal pouring temperature will depend on the mold size, the ambient temperature and other ingredients used; some small-scale experimentation is highly recommended before pouring larger quantities. The wax is tolerant to different pour temperatures, and a recommended starting range is 50-60°C (122-140°F).
Curing
The melt or candle should be allowed to cool and cure for at least 12 hours before use, preferably in a temperature-controlled environment.
Shelf Life
24 months from date of pack, for unopened boxes stored cool, dry and out of direct sunlight. Re-testing towards the end of the anticipated shelf-life may permit it to be extended. Please request assistance if this is required.
