Hi there,
I'm new to making candles and I am trying to keep straight which wick is best for what kind of candle.... I have a woman who has asked me to refill glass religious candle containers that are 7.5 inches tall and 2.75 inches wide for her and I am wondering if I should use 1/0, #2 or 60 ply wick and secure it to the bottom somehow so it will stay centered or use zinc wire cored wick. If the zinc wire core is best which size? I'm using only beeswax.
Any help is much appreciated.
Jean
