How to use candle varnish?
Using candle varnish is very straightforward. Our recommendation is to perform a dipping technique, although you could also use a brush to apply it.
Here's a step-by-step guide on how to varnish candles:
Thoroughly mix the varnish with a metal spatula to disperse the color particles and achieve a consistent tone. Insert the spatula to the bottom and vigorously stir for a few minutes. Keep in mind that metallic particles are heavy and settle at the base of the container, so thorough mixing is essential, with special emphasis on the bottom. Mix until the varnish becomes homogeneous and consistent. This process might take several minutes, but it's important to do it well for the desired outcome.
Pour the varnish into a wide and deep plastic container.
Hold the candle by its wick and immerse it in the varnish for a few minutes.
Allow it to dry completely.
Remember that if the base candle was of dark colors, it's advisable to give it multiple dipping sessions. In this case, ensure it dries completely between each immersion.
The only thing left to do is to store the varnish back in the can, seal it tightly, and keep it in a place without humidity and abrupt temperature changes.

To apply any type of coating or varnish to a candle, it's necessary for the candle's surface to be thoroughly cleaned. Keep in mind that waxes and paraffins are inherently greasy, and if we add the use of mold release agent during their creation, it's crucial to clean the candle before coating to ensure proper adhesion. Otherwise, the surface will remain oily, and the varnish will slide off and not adhere. To clean the candle, it's ideal to use 96% alcohol. Soak a cloth and rub the surface until it's clean and free of grease residue. The varnish thinners can also be used.
