We offer high-quality candle wax dye, suitable for soy wax and paraffin bases. Our candle dye blocks are completely dissolved in wax, there won’t be any clots in the candle mass, and staining will be even. In addition, the finished candle keeps the brightness of the color, the surface is not flaked, and does not tarnish with time.
Important to know:
- How to increase the number of shades? The color wax is easily crushed into small pieces, which allows you to mix it with other wax dyes, thus creating a variety of colors and shades.
- Acceleration of dissolution. To accelerate the process of dissolution of the candle color dye, mix it with the candle mass at a temperature of at least 150 - 170 °F degrees.
- How to calculate the required amount of candle dyes for candle making.
The dosage depends on the candle mass's fat, content, hardness, and purity. More candle color dye for soy wax is required. To dye the entire base of paraffin weighing 1 lb., only 0.02-0.06 oz. of dye is sufficient. For candle soy wax with the same weight, you need to add 0.03-0.08 oz.
- Candle dyeing can be done in two ways:
Full dyeing. The candle dye is added to the paraffin mixture of the melted base, and is mixed thoroughly until full solidification and then poured into a soy candle wax mold.
Partial dyeing. Dipping the finished product in the solution is carried out after the complete solidification of the candles.
