TOP TIP: HELP – MY REFILL DOESN’T SEEM TO FIT MY GLASS
AS THE TEMPERATURE WARMS, THE WAX WILL SOFTEN AND ‘SWELL’ A LITTLE AND THE REFILL MAY NOT FIT IN TO YOUR GLASS EASILY … SO JUST PUT THE REFILL BACK IN THE BOX AND INTO YOUR FREEZER FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. THIS WILL HARDEN AND SHRINK THE WAX SO IT THEN FITS INTO YOUR GLASS PERFECTLY. DON’T BE AFRAID TO GENTLY PUSH THE REFILL INTO THE GLASS AND IF A LITTLE WAX CATCHES ON THE RIM OF THE GLASS, JUST CLEAN THIS OFF WITH A DISPOSABLE CLOTH/TISSUE
HOW TO CLEAN YOUR CANDLE GLASS SAFELY
IF YOUR CANDLE HASN’T BEEN BURNING IN A DRAUGHTY SPOT AND YOU COMPLETED THE FIRST BURN CORRECTLY, THEN YOU SHOULD ONLY HAVE ABOUT 1.5CM OF WAX IN THE BOTTOM OF YOUR GLASS TO REMOVE. THE EASIEST OPTION TO GET THIS OUT, IS TO PUT YOUR CANDLE GLASS IN THE FREEZER FOR ABOUT 60 MINUTES AND THE WAX WILL THEN SHRINK & YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO JUST PULL THE WAX OUT CLEANLY. IF NEED BE, YOU CAN WIPE THE GLASS OUT WITH A DISPOSABLE CLOTH DAMPENED WITH HOT WATER. YOUR GLASS IS THEN READY FOR YOU TO POP YOUR NEW CANDLE REFILL INTO
IF YOU HAVE MORE WAX RESIDUE THAN THIS IN YOUR GLASS, OR YOU HAVEN’T A FREEZER NEARBY, THEN WARM THE OUTSIDE OF YOUR GLASS UNTIL THE WAX SOFTENS (A HAIR DRYER WORKS WELL FOR THIS, OR PUT THE GLASS IN A BOWL OF HOT WATER (DO NOT GET WATER INTO THE CANDLE GLASS) – ONCE THE WAX SOFTENS YOU CAN SCOOP/WIPE IT OUT WITH A PAPER/DISPOSABLE CLOTH (DISCARD IN THE RUBBISH). ONCE ALL THE WAX RESIDUE IS REMOVED, WIPE THE GLASS OUT WITH A DISPOSABLE CLOTH DAMPENED WITH HOT WATER AND THIS SHOULD HAVE YOUR GLASS CLEAN ENOUGH TO PLACE THE CANDLE REFILL INTO. DO NOT WASH THE GLASS OUT WITH SOAP AND WATER UNTIL THE WAX IS FULLY REMOVED FROM THE GLASS,THIS ENSURES YOU DON’T GET ANY WAX AND FRAGRANCE INTO OUR WATERWAYS
SAFETY NOTE
THE CANDLE REFILL MUST BE PLACED INTO A GLASS PRIOR TO LIGHTING – FAILURE TO DO SO COULD CAUSE INJURY/FIRE
