Golden Wax 494 Soy Wax – Product Description
Golden Wax 494 is a high-quality, all-natural soy wax meticulously formulated for wax melts and tarts. Packaged in easy-to-use flake form, it’s tailored for makers who demand smooth performance and brilliant results.
Technical Specifications & Performance Highlights:
* Melt Point: 120–125 °F (≈ 49–52 °C)
* Suggested Pour Temperature: Around 160 °F — some sources note 150–160 °F; others show up to 170 °F, with pouring recommended above 150 °F
* Fragrance Oil Load: Typically 5–10%, with some sources suggesting up to 12% (ideal for strong hot and cold throw).
* Form: Convenient flake for easy melting and precise measuring.
Key Advantages:
1) Exceptional Fragrance Throw: Delivers impressive scent in both hot and cold states, comparable to paraffin wax.
2) Bloom & Frosting Defense: Special botanical blend minimizes surface frost and bloom for a clean, smooth finish.
3) Outstanding Mold Release: Eases demolding for clamshells, molds, and tart trays.
4) Color Brilliance: Holds dye incredibly well for vibrant, eye-catching tarts and melts.
5) Eco-Conscious & Vegan-Friendly: Made from renewable American-grown soy, with no need for additional paraffin or additives—suitable for vegan use.
Usage Guidelines:
* Heat the wax to around 180–190 °F (avoid exceeding 200 °F).
* Add dyes and fragrance oils, stirring for about 60 seconds to ensure even mixing.
* Cool the blend to approximately 160 °F (or between 140–150 °F per some references) before pouring slowly into molds.
* Curing Time: Efficacy peaks after 5–10 days (some recommend up to 14 days) for best scent throw.
Not For Candles: This wax contains botanical additives that limit flame performance—so it's not suitable for burning candles and should be used specifically for melts and tarts.
