Abstract

Procedure for the manufacture of candles or wax figures with protrusion and consequent vision, at a distance, of the details printed by the mold, which consists of a first phase, in which a light greasing of the internal surface of the mold of the candle or figure. In a second phase the mold is filled with a suitable fused paste, uncoloured and translucent at a temperature ordinarily between 75 and 95 degrees centigrade, proceeding immediately after filling to the rapid inversion of the mold with its emptying, which remains in all the inner surface of the same one layer of the uncoloured paste of variable thickness because in the edges corresponding to details of the mold, more amount of paste is adhered because the contact surface is greater and the viscosity is higher. In a third phase the single or multiple mold is filled with colored fused wax at a temperature ordinarily between 50 and 80 degrees centigrade. In a fourth phase, the solidification is carried out for a suitable time and the extraction of the pieces of the mold, in which the folds and projections of the mold will be seen, areas of greater thickness of translucent paste with a more whitish appearance, highlighting the flat areas in which, due to the lower thickness of the layer, the color of the inner core will be seen more. In a fifth phase the varnishing is carried out, either normal, or pearled or cold-dipped, and in a sixth phase the surface of the candle is rubbed or it is shown with a powder carrier element of a bismuth salt it gives the piece of wax a ceramic shine.
