Keep going, you will need to add more water so your pan doesn’t dry out. When 1.75 hours are up fill a glass baking dish with cool water. I carefully removed them and rinsed with water and added clean water to the pan. 37.1Kstumbleupon. Basics of Candle Making with Step-by-Step Instructions - LoneStarCandleSupply.com.
