Gel Wax Penreco Medium Density Candle Gel “C-MP”

This clear jelly-like wax is for candle use in containers only. Also has applications in film special effect and set decoration to simulate the look of ice. Gel Wax is made from a specially selected and processed mineral oil and a gelling agent, giving it a clear, rubbery texture.

Always use a thermometer to ensure safety and a good end product, and do not use wooden utensils to stir unless bubbles are desired (metal is recommended). Use oil-based scents only, not alcohol based.

For wicking, use a zinc core or pre-dipped Wick & Tab wick.  Use approximately one size larger wick than you would in paraffin wax. 

Gel Wax should be melted slowly in a pot on a low heat. For less bubbles, heat to 90º-98ºC (200-210ºF). Heat to 76º-88ºC (170º-190ºF) for more bubbles.

Recommended fragrance oil load 3%-6%.

Microwaving is not recommended for this product.
