NatureWax C-3 soy wax is an all-natural soy wax blend that is well known for excellent jar adhesion (minimal wet spots), minimal frosting, and excellent scent throw. We have found that NatureWax C-3 produces the best aesthetic candles among the various soy waxes we have tested/carry and is very easy to work with.

Basic Guidelines:

- Melt point: 125 – 130°F

- Heat wax to temperature 130 - 190° (caution: heating wax above 200° may cause wax discoloration)

- Add dye as needed and mix thoroughly

- Add candle fragrance oil as needed and mix thoroughly (fragrance oil should be added just before pouring to prevent fragrance oil from evaporating)

- Pouring temperatures should typically be around 120° to 165°, though experimentation is recommended to determine optimal pouring temperature

- When pouring melted wax into containers, the containers should be at room temperature or slightly warmer

- Allow candles to cool as slow as possible to achieve good jar adhesion and create a smooth finish
