Q&A

What is the difference between your regular wood wicks and your dual wood. Wicks ?

Although both are 0.04" thick, our single-ply wooden wicks are a single piece of wood while dual-ply are two pieces adhered together. Single-ply perform well in paraffin, and dual wood wicks may be the better choice for higher viscosity waxes such as beeswax or soy blends, or with a high usage of fragrance & colorants.

Hola, quiero tratar las mechas en madera ya que las eco no sé por qué al encenderla se inclinan hacia un solo lado haciendo que el quemado sea más de un lado que del otro , estas de madera en tamaño Large se puede utilizar en sus frascos de 10oz con cera de soja? Gracias

Se pueden usar mechas de madera con cera de soja en nuestros frascos tipo vaso de 10 oz. Recomendamos probar al menos 2 tamaños, y nos gusta la de doble capa para cera de soja.

Do these come with the metal tabs as well?

Hi, our wooden wicks do come with wooden wick tabs.

I see on your resource page that these wicks perform well in paraffin, soy, and palm. I use the para soy problend and have a customer requesting wood wicks. Are these not known to perform well in this wax? Would you recommend dual as opposed to single?

Hi Bridget! Wooden wicks work well in para-soy blends, but they are notoriously tricky to work with! Due to the wax being almost 50/50, consider testing both the single-ply and dual wooden wicks to see which performs best for you and provides your desired results. The single ply is the same thickness as the dual (not to be confused with a booster) and performs well in paraffin-based waxes, while the dual may perform optimally in waxes with a higher soy content.

I purchased the wooden wicks, but they will not stay lit. What am I doing wrong? Do they need to be soaked before using them? Any advice is certainly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Eva! Because there are so many variables that can affect candle and wick performance, feel free to email info@theflamingcandle.com with the type of wax used, fragrance load %, and container diameter so that we can better assist. Generally speaking, a wick that will not stay lit may be too small for the container, the wax too hard for the wick, or the wick may need trimmed. As these wicks are already primed, they do not require soaking. Trim wick to no more than 1/8" to 3/16‚" before lighting - It is very important to keep the wicks trimmed to no more than 1/8" to 3/16" before lighting. Trimming them longer than this will prevent the wax from pulling up the wick and will cause the flame to burn out.
