How to use:

Wick sustainer is an essential product for the creation of container candles. It allows you to keep the wick straight when you pour the wax, fixing it to the container bottom and preventing the wick from floating inside the wax.

Before inserting the wick into the wick sustainer, it is necessary to cover your wick with wax to make it rigid. For this purpose melt some wax in a bain-marie (never expose the wax to open flame, so in this case we don’t recommend to use a gas stove). Dip the wick into the wax, put it out and hold it with both hands using gloves to avoid contact between hot wax and skin. Maintain the wick in this position for a few seconds and then repeat the process.

When your wick is covered with a slight layer of wax, cut it to desired length and insert it into the wick sustainer hole, press slightly the neck of the wick sustainer (if necessary use the pliers) to fix it to the wick.

Put the obtained waxed wick into the container and stick it to the bottom with tape. Otherwise, it is possible to fix the base of the wick by pouring into the container a small quantity of the wax until you cover completely the wick sustainer. When the first layer of the wax hardens and becomes thick and opaque, pour the remaining part of wax into the container.
