One of the simplest tricks we can offer on making pillar candles when using aluminum candle molds or tin candle molds is to feed the wick through the bottom of the mold and secure on top with wick holder bar (M-321). Secure the bottom with a rubber plug rubber plug (M-114)…now the secret is to leave a lot of extra wick at the bottom of the candle mold. By doing this you can automatically “wick” the mold for your next pour when you pull the finished candle out of the mold. This procedure should work with all aluminum candle molds, tin molds and polyurethane (including taper molds). This little trick can save you time by making it unnecessary to feed the wick through the hole for each and every pour.
