Beeswax and paraffin typically require a slightly larger wick size than soy wax for the same container diameter, so test burn before committing to a large production run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need to pre-wax these wicks before use?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo — these wicks come pre-waxed and ready to use. The wax coating stiffens the wick so it stands upright easily when positioning in your container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat length should I cut the wick to?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLeave the wick long enough to extend 2–3cm above your container while pouring (to give you something to grip). Trim to 5–7mm after the wax has fully set and before the first burn. A wick that is too long will produce excess soot and a large, uncontrolled flame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eShop More Candle Making Supplies\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/candle-wicks\"\u003eCandle Wicks\u003c\/a\u003e or browse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/candle-making-supplies\"\u003eCandle Making Supplies\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Crafty Corner","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48724257636546,"sku":"200007763:201336100","price":28.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0739\/2700\/0258\/files\/S0610f6a479464552ae346f5950195843F.webp?v=1788440580","url":"https:\/\/mycraftycorner.com\/products\/a78i-100pcs-eco-wicks-for-soy-candles-8-inch-pre-waxed-candle-wick-for-candle-making-thick-candle-wick-with-base","provider":"My Crafty Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
