How to calculate the required amount of dye? The dosage depends on the fat content, hardness, and purity of the wax you're using. To dye the entire base of paraffin weighing 1 lb, only 0.02-0.04 oz of dye is sufficient. For wax weighing the same, you will need a bit more: 0.03-0.05 oz.

Candle coloring can be done in two ways: 1. Entire dyeing. The dye is added to the melted base's paraffin mixture, mixed until full solidification, and then poured into a mold. 2. Partial dyeing. Dipping of the finished product in the solution after the candles have completely cooled and solidified.

Feel like 16 colors are not enough to fulfill your creative ideas? The dye flakes are easily crashed into even smaller pieces to be conveniently mixed with other colors, thus creating a variety of additional beautiful colors and shades. In the guide included you will see the table on mixing colors.
