Do Salt City
Candles have lead in their wicks?
No, Salt City Candles are lead free.
Should I trim my
wick?
Yes, wicks should be kept trim to about
one quarter of an inch long.
Always trim your wick before you burn your candle.
What should I do
if my candle is smoking or sparking?
A smoking or sparking candle indicates a
dirty or long wick. After you extinguish your candle, use a soft cloth
to GENTLY wipe your wick and then trim. Extinguishing in wax is the
best way to keep clean.
How long should I let my candles burn?
The first burn of a candle is the most
important one. You should make this first burn as long as possible, at
least 3-4 hours with each successive burn 2-3 hours long. This will
ensure that all of the wax across the top of the candle will be melted
and allow your candle to burn evenly. This will prevent your candle
from welling- burning down the center of the candle leaving all of the
wax along the sides. Some wax remaining on the sides of the jar is
normal.
