  • Every wax type performs differently.

⚠️ Important Consideration: Tin vs. Glass

Metal tins conduct heat more rapidly than glass containers, which can lead to higher temperatures during burning.

  • For this reason, a smaller wick is typically more suitable in tins.

  • This helps prevent overheating, ensures a stable flame, and promotes an even burn.
