Using pure paraffin with no additives and 100% pure fragrance oils. This ensures a strongly scented candle that
is long lasting and clean burning with virtually no waste. In order to get the best results from your
Stray Cat Candle, please read and follow candle-burning safety and
instructions.
ö
Always burn
candles safely, keeping lighted candles away from children and pets. Never, ever leave a burning candle
unattended.
ö
We have taken
precautions to properly wick our candles.
Stray Cat Candles are made using FDA approved, zinc-core wicks. That is the piece of wire you’ll see in your
candle wick. Lead core wicks are not available
to buy in the USA. (Beware of the stuff made in China!) To avoid
soot and ensure the longest lasting candle, ALWAYS trim your wick to ¼ inch
before relighting. This will provide you
with the least amount of soot (if any!) and make your candles last longer. Trim your wick with a “wick trimmer” or scissors,
and then shake out the trimmings from the jar.
If you do get any soot, you can simply wipe the inside of the jar with a
dry paper towel. This will help keep the
candle clean and nice looking to the bottom of the jar!
ö
When burning
your candle, make sure the top of the jar is completely liquid before it is
extinguished. This promotes even burning
and prevents burning a hole down the center of the candle. This also extends the life of the candle.
ö
Keep your wick
centered and away from the side of the glass.
Wicks can become off-centered after use.
If that should happen, simply maneuver the wick to the center.
ö
Do not allow a
jar candle to burn completely down to the bottom. Stop about ½ inch from the bottom. The large size candle (16-oz.) will burn approximately
80 hours, if burned properly. The small
size (8-oz.) will burn around 40 hours.
