Waxes for melts

[CBeardly]

Hi, I used to make melts years ago. Even then, I was never satisfied with the waxes I tried. I want to take up the hobby again, though. I've been looking at Caluxe C55 and CocoSol waxes. Does anyone have experience with either of these? I know they have different pouring temps, but would it be possible to blend them, or are they too different?

I'm not familiar with those waxes, but any waxes can be blended. Maybe mix a 1/2lb of each and see how it goes...

They just need to be hard enough to hold their shape, but soft enough to have a hot throw.
