Making concrete candles is tough but making concrete candles without the convenience of having products like Cement All is tougher. Even though I created 2 successful formulas I was never quite happy with them. However, I have a new concrete candle jar formula that is the best of the best for those who don't have access to Cement All.

Great video and thanks for sharing ❤
Thank you so much. I am in New Zealand and we can't get cementall or anything like it, so this is very valuable info.
Man I love your vid
Really you are great 👍 ❤
Great info
Thank you
Hi, really enjoy your videos and testing. Does one need to use a sealer for the vessels? I can understand when the wax is melted it can discolor the vessel,but doesn't it cool and solidify before that happens. It's just hard to find the proper sealant where I live, that is heat resistant as well.
Hi. Yes you need a sealant. Either check out my video on sealants or have Earth Safe Finishes shipped to you. If that is too expensive look at neighboring countries to see what works.
Hi Jai, I'm in the US and looking at using Quickcrete brand cement and sand as well as Dap brand plaster of paris. I can't seem to find any other type of plaster 😕 I'll check back in if you like, I'll test in a candle holder mold as well. Thank you for sharing this!
There is so much plaster in the US. Hydrostone, hydrocal, ultracal30. You have so many options.
Hi thanks a lot . I did try this formula, they turned out quite nice . Just wanted to ask if you give them a water bath .
No due to the plaster you won't give it a water bath.
Hi! I am not sure the best place to ask this question! I am wondering do you have a video on clean up? I am making a huge mess and I have the silicone bowls but they just are caked with cement now and I live in apartment and I don’t have access to a hose or anything to rinse my bowls out. Please help!!!! I LOVE YOUR VIDS. As soon as I have the $ I am buying your course!
It’s so tough to answer on here and I cover it in my course but I basically let my contents harden and crack it off. You could try wiping it off once it’s semi hard or last idea is to use a very very very small amount of release spray in your bowl before mixing. That should help crack it off easily.
Hi Jai, I really enjoyed this video and have been watching your videos on sealants that can or cannot be used for sealing concrete jars. Would you consider Poly V-7 as a safe sealant for candle vessels? I've been trying to find information on this apart from it being non-flammable and non-toxic but to no avail.
Thanks for the love. My first question to you is why are you interested in Poly V7? It's quite expensive. I have never used or tested it but from what I do know it is worth a shot to test out if you have some. Trying calling the company and asking for a sample bottle. Most companies give samples. Let me know how it goes.
@upvibecandle Hi, so currently I'm planning on testing out candle making as a small business idea. I'm also from the Caribbean, so Poly V/ Poly V-7 is one of the most common water-based sealants that we have here in our market, and the cost is relatively cheaper than other sealants. In terms of sample products and contacting the companies, it can sometimes be difficult because of international shipping (but I'll definitely keep an eye out). I've also been thinking about importing the sealants, but with the costs and fees applied (custom taxes) at this moment, I'm not too sure. But I'll definitely give Poly V-7 a try and let you know how it goes, thanks again😊
@@janarisalleyne3527 Ok so now I understand. Yes call them up and see if they will send you a sample. It's too expensive to buy for it to fail on you. However, if they won't send you a sample it might be worth trying because it sounds like it will work. Wishing you success.
@upvibecandle Ok, thanks very much, Jai!!! I really appreciate it and will definitely look into contacting them and any other options.
Jai Thankyou so much for your great videos, I just have a question, I’m from New Zealand, as you know we don’t get cement all here, I have looked at your resources page and products for here, with the Portland concrete do I still need to add sand and plaster of Paris, Thankyou for your help Shaz
Watch this video. There are time stamps. See what formula works best for you. th-cam.com/video/0RJypw_vkoQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=BACyHId3AnPVp7EA
Thank you Jai, I hadn’t seen this video, very very helpful
Hi Jai, how long do you leave your jars to cure after removing from the mold to ensure they dont break when you try pull them apart? (I pulled on mine after, yes i know im an idiot, 8 hours and of course it broke!!)
HI, check out this video for the full answer to your question. It's time stamped for your convenience. th-cam.com/video/tI5PqQDqTd8/w-d-xo.html
Jai, could you please point me in the right direction as to where you get your plaster? I'm in the US, so I have access to a lot of stuff, but I'm pulling my hair out trying to find something other than Plaster of Paris that's accessible to me.
Many thanks for all of your helpful videos!
I buy mine from Euclids. There is also a store in NYC and Philly that I can buy it from but I can't remember the names. I know you can check out Reynolds. They have multiple locations. Another idea is your local craft store. Hope that helps.
Any suggestions what to do if you have no access to a vibrating machine? Will manual tapping work?
Yes. I rarely use my vibrating machine unless I need the contents to go into the silicone mold faster.
@@upvibecandle thanks a bunch
Can i add more water to make it more fluid? Thank you :)
Adding more water can negatively impact your mixture and compromise the integrity of your jar.
What is the best sealer for this new formula?
Anyone of these.

Jai, I loved your video. But where do we buy plaster? and does play sand work?
Michael's craft store carries plaster.
Plaster can usually be bought in a craft store. You can also try online. Play sand should work but test test test... Let me know how it goes.
I use silica sand, it works
@@sharonsia183 yes silica sand is perfect.
@@sharonsia183 where do u buy it?
I'm curious to try this. I wonder what would happen if you do use Cement All instead of concrete? Probably a mess lol but I'm curious.
Have you tried Let's Resin - Resin Casting Powder?
I am assuming you mean cement and not concrete. Concrete is the final product. If you were to add Cement All to the mix instead of cement it would harden because cement all is a combination of ingredients to make concrete. However, it would defeat the purpose as this video is for those who don't have access to Cement All.
@@upvibecandle I was just looking for an excuse to make a mess lol 😂.
Have you dabbled with Let's Resin Casting Powder?
@@MisterWhatWhat I have not used it.
There was no mention of a sealer? Did you use one? 🤨
The video was about the new formula nd testing the candle was the proof that the formula works. Mentioning sealers wasn't included because that wasn't the theme of the video. However, all the products I use are always linked in the description.
Same question I came to ask. Thanks for the clarification 😊
@@Rhondas_Flippin_Life My sealers are listed in the description of every video.
For reason this formula starts setting even when i am pouring.
