Usage NotesBooster wood wick 1 is suitable for use in a container measuring between 30mm and 40mm inside diameter. However, we strongly recommend you conduct your own testing as there are many variables that affect the way a candle burns. OriginThe premier, all natural, Original Wick is made from native, sappy fruit trees and sourced from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)-certified mills and manufactured with pride (and great skill) in the USA. Offered in a variety of thicknesses, widths, and lengths and for use in all wax types, The Original Wick can be used on its own or combined with other wicks to meet your candle making needs. To achieve optimal burn performance in candles with high levels of fragrance, colour or vegetable based waxes use two Wicks together (in one Wick Clip) to achieve the optimal crackling effect or combine an Original Wick and a Smooth Wick for a more subtle crackling sound. TipsThe best “crackle” is achieved with a fragrance load of between 6-8% |
