WICK HELP:	For info on choosing wicks for your candles, please make use of the charts on our Wick page. We also strongly recommend trying our wick sample kits to experiment and test burn. *Due to the many variables and materials in candlemaking, we cannot guarantee a certain type or size of wick to work in your application, so we prefer not to make specific recommendations aside from the info we provide on our site. Please try a sample kit and test burn to determine what works best for you! If you want to see what wicks are working for other candlemakers, try the Pick-a-Wick Database!
WAX HELP:	For info on chosing a wax for your candles, please refer to the Wax page of our site. There are many types of waxes to choose from, and much of the choice is up to personal preference. So we recommend trying a sample slab of different types to determine which wax you like best. Each different wax has a pop-up info page that gives you everything you could want to know about that particular wax, including technical info and useage advice. Just click on the little info buttons!
GEL CANDLE HELP:	For info on making Gel Candles, please visit www.gelcandlemaking.com. This site will give you all of the info you need to make safe Gel Candles, including how to test for polarity, etc. Please read thru this site completely before experimenting with Gel, and then if you still have questions, contact us!

If you are a new candlemaker and need beginner info or advice, we suggest a trip to
The Candle Cauldron site. There you can start by reading up on the basics and learn a few
tips from other candlemakers, both new and advanced! We also carry several helpful books
on candle and soapmaking for beginners. You are always welcome to write to us
using our E-mail form above if you can't find the info or advice you needed,
and we will try our best to get back to you and help out as soon as possible! Thanks :)

*Please do not ask the order clerks for technical help, candlemaking info or product advice.
The office staff cannot help in that area, and can only give you the information already provided on our website.
We would rather have our experienced technical staff answer your questions and make sure you get the best
and most accurate information possible!
