Always let the sand cool completely before refilling. Remove used wick remnants before adding fresh candle sand or inserting a new wick .
Cleaning and care
When you want to refill your container , remove excess wax with a kitchen towel. The candle sand itself is easy to replace, for example when you want to try a new scent.
