How to use candle varnish?
Using candle varnish is very simple. Our recommendation is to do a dipping technique, although you could also use a brush to paint them.
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 uniform 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 bottom of the container, so it's crucial to stir thoroughly, paying special attention to the bottom. Mix until the varnish is homogeneous and consistent. This process might take several minutes, but it's important to do it well for the desired result.
Pour the varnish into a wide and deep plastic container.
Hold the candle by the wick and immerse it in the varnish for a few minutes.
Allow it to dry completely.
Remember that if the base candle was dark-colored, it's advisable to give it multiple dipping sessions. In this case, let it dry completely between each immersion.
All that's left is to store the varnish back in the container, seal it tightly, and keep it in a place without humidity and abrupt temperature changes.

To apply any type of coating or varnish on a candle, it's necessary for the surface to be clean. Keep in mind that waxes and paraffins are greasy by definition, and if you add that we used a release agent during their production, it's essential to clean the candle before coating it to ensure proper adhesion. Otherwise, the surface will be oily, and the varnish will slide off and won't 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. Diluents for the varnish can also be used.
