Gel wax for candles — transparent, high-quality
Product description
Gel wax is a crystal-clear, elastic wax with a jelly-like structure, made from mineral oil and polymer resin. Thanks to its absolute transparency, it allows the creation of high-impact decorative candles with marine elements, shells, sand, dried flowers, figurines, and other decorative accents.
It is suitable only for container candles and provides even, long-lasting burning.
When colored with suitable liquid dyes, it retains much of its transparency. Slight cloudiness is possible, depending on the type and amount of pigment added — a normal property of the material.
