Why do Candle-lite instructions recommend that you discontinue burning a filled glass candle when 1/2″ of unmelted wax remains?
A. To insure a safe burn and to avoid any possibility of the flame coming in contact with the sidewall of the glass container, we recommend you stop burning when there is 1/2″ of hard, not liquid, wax remaining. Some wax should remain on the bottom for safety’s sake! Always burn on a heat resistant surface.
