Golden Wax 494 Soy Wax Melt/Tart Blend

Golden Wax 494 – The Go-To Soy Wax for Wax Melts & Tarts

Golden Wax 494 is an all-natural soy wax created specifically for wax melts and candle tarts. Unlike traditional candle waxes, 494 includes plant-based additives designed to reduce capillary action — meaning it is not suitable for wicked candles, but it absolutely shines in melt applications.

This botanical-based formulation delivers:

• Vibrant colors
• Smooth, professional finish
• Excellent mold release
• Reduced bloom/frosting
• A scent throw comparable to paraffin
• Shorter setup times so you can unmold faster

It’s a true stand-alone soy wax — no paraffin, no extra additives, no boosters needed.
