Keep your candles burning beautifully and safely with this precision trimmer. It provides precise and efficient trimming of wicks and helps to prolong the life of your candles and ensures a clean and even burn every time. TIPS: Trimming the wick to about 1/4 inch before lighting can help prevent uneven burning dripping, or flaring. It can also reduce smoke and soot, and help the flame burn more vertically. When to trim You should trim the wick before every burn ideally every 4 hours of burn time. To do this, you can: 1. Extinguish the candle and let it cool to room temperature. 2. Use a wick trimmer, nail clippers, or sharp scissors to trim the wick vertically, parallel to the wax, and about 1/4 inch above the wax. You can try to cut the wick evenly across not at an angle. 3. While cutting, allow the blades to catch the wick debris to prevent it from falling in to the wax. wick trimmers have special tray shaped blades designed for this purpose. 4. Discard any excess trimmings, matches, or debris.
