The knowledge of scented candle

• Question1: Burning pit, wall hanging (memory circle).

2 Reasons:

01. The wick is too long, and when the candle is burning, it can only burn around the wick, resulting in a deep pit.

02. Insufficient first burning time, resulting in insufficient burning, forming a memory circle.

Solution:

01. Before each burning, please trim the candle wick to about 5-7mm to promote full combustion and avoid blackening the inner wall of the candle. At the same time, too-long wicks may also cause charcoal ash to fall into the wax pool, resulting in black smoke.

02. Please ensure that the first burning time is 2-3 hours, which is very critical! Let the surface of the candle be fully burned and melt into a pool of liquid wax. If the first burning time is not enough, the traces of your first burning will be remembered the next time you ignite, and the so-called memory circle will easily appear afterwards.

03. For the scented candles that have been hung on the wall (memory circle), you can wrap the vessel with tin foil and leave a small gap (here, it should be noted that the reserved gap should be smaller than the diameter of the candle cup, and the storage temperature will be effective if it is heated. ), and then burn for about 1 hour (after the surface is fully burned), the extinguished candle will return to flatness when it hardens.

04. You can also choose to use a hair dryer, smart cover or wax melting lamp, which can also save the wall hanging problem. Here, it is recommended to use the scented candle smart cover directly, which can solve the problem more conveniently.

• Question 2:Black smoke when burning.

3 Reasons:

01. Wax problem: The material of the candle will cause black smoke. For example, paraffin wax is more likely to produce black smoke than soybean wax. Natural soy wax and coconut wax have better fragrance and burning effects.

02. The problem of wicks: There are roughly two types of wicks for candles on the market, wood wicks and cotton wicks. Cotton wicks are not easy to produce black smoke, and wood cores are relatively more likely to spark when burning, so you must pay more attention when choosing to use them.

03. Improper use of scented candles may also cause black smoke.

Solution

01. When extinguishing the candle, be careful not to blow it out directly with your mouth. Use a professional candle extinguisher or candle extinguisher to extinguish. You can also choose to use an insulated cover instead if you don't have one.

02. Avoid using it at the tuyere. When the candle flame shakes in the wind, it will cause the candle not to burn fully, resulting in black smoke.

• Question 3: The wick is easily extinguished when burning.

2 Reasons:

01. The wick is too short to react with oxygen.

02. The candle wick is too long, and it naturally bends and submerges in the wax pool during the burning process, causing it to go out.

Solution

01. The best length is to trim the candle wick to 5-7mm before burning.

02. In order to avoid the influence of external factors, do not use it on the tuyere.

03. If you accidentally cut the wick short, you can use the smart cover to keep out the wind, and it can still be lit.

• Question 4: How to clean the vessel after use?

When the cups of scented candles look good, you would like to clean the vessels and keep them for other purposes. How to clean the used candle vessels?

Solution

01. Use hot water & detergent to emulsify the residual wax in the vessel, then rinse it with hot water, and finally wipe it clean with a paper towel.

02. Hot water can also be injected directly, the wax will slowly melt during the standing process, and the floating wax block can be taken out directly when it cools down.
