Craft Structurally Perfect Pillar Candles with Exceptional Scent
For the creator dedicated to crafting beautiful, stand-alone candles, IGI 4625 is the ultimate tool. This premium, pre-blended paraffin wax is engineered specifically for the demands of pillar, votive, and molded candles, providing the structure, performance, and flawless appearance your work deserves.
IGI 4625 is celebrated for its smooth, opaque finish that serves as the perfect canvas for color, accepting dyes beautifully to achieve vibrant, consistent shades. Its robust formulation guarantees a powerful fragrance throw, ensuring your creations captivate the senses both cold and while burning. While the nature of a hard pillar wax requires a second pour to achieve a perfect, level base, this blend offers a significant advantage: excellent mold release. This critical feature saves you time and frustration, allowing your candles to slide out of their molds cleanly and effortlessly.
