Description

Paraffin Wax 150 is a fully refined candle wax used for smooth, glossy candles with strong scent throw. It’s a popular choice for scented candles and for makers who want a clean, consistent finish.

Why Candle Makers Use Paraffin 150

  • Smooth, glossy finish: helps candles look clean and professional.
  • Strong fragrance throw: holds and releases scent well.
  • Good burn performance: when paired with the right wick and jar size.
  • Versatile: suitable for container, pillar, and votive candles (with proper testing).

How to Use Paraffin Wax for Candles

  1. Melt the wax using a double boiler or wax melter until fully liquid (usually around 58–68°C, depending on your setup).
  2. Add fragrance and colour once melted. Mix slowly and evenly.
  3. Pour into your jar or mould and keep the wick centred.
  4. Let it cool at room temperature. Avoid sudden temperature changes to reduce cracking or sinkholes.
  5. Trim the wick to about 6 mm (¼ inch) before lighting.

Common Paraffin Wax Blends (Starting Ratios)

Many makers blend paraffin to adjust hardness, finish, or burn behaviour. These are starting points only:

  • Paraffin + Soy (80:20 or 70:30): keeps paraffin’s smooth finish while softening the blend slightly.
  • Paraffin + Beeswax (70:30 or 50:50): adds firmness and can improve burn control.
  • Paraffin + Coconut Wax (70:30 or 60:40): can soften the look and support scent throw (test for cracking).
  • Paraffin + Palm Wax (90:10 or 80:20): can add a crystalline look (test for surface effects).

Quick Tips for Better Results

  • Test burn first: jar width, fragrance type, and wick size change everything.
  • Don’t rush cooling: stable room temperature helps prevent cracks and sinkholes.
  • Start simple: try one fragrance, one jar size, and a few wick sizes before scaling up.

Important Note

This guide is a general starting point. Actual results depend on vessel diameter, fragrance load, colourants, additives, and production method. 

Always do your own test burns to choose the correct wick and confirm safe, consistent performance.
