464 Troubleshooting Tips
Not getting a smooth finish on the surface of your candles?
- Try pouring 5-10°F (2.8-5.6°C) hotter.
- Don’t let your candles cool on surfaces like marble and granite. These materials draw out the heat from the candles too quickly.
- Try a second pour or a heat gun to smooth the surface.
Not getting a strong fragrance throw?
- Ensure you are curing your candles for two weeks to get the best results from the fragrance.
- Make sure you are adding fragrance at 185°F (85°C).
- Re-examine the wicking.
- Make sure you are evaluating the scent throw of the candle in an appropriately-sized space relative to the size of the candle.

Candle Maker's Notes:
This wax can be a little too soft for the summer heat. If you are shipping finished candles in hot weather, you may want to consider a soy wax with a higher melt point, like Golden Brands 444.
