As a rule of thumb I use natural wicks for natural products such as cotton or hemp for soy wax, and zinc wicks for not so natural waxes such as Paraffin. That makes it a bit easier to recall. I tend to buy 6 inch wicks and cut them down to size if needed. But I am not making candles for resale either.
When you lit a match near the candle , it melts and vaporizes a small amount of fuel. Once vaporised, the fuel combines with the atmospheric oxygen to form a flame. This flame provides sufficient heat to maintain the burning of the candle. The heat of the flame melts the top mass of solid fuel, the liquefied fuel then moves upward through the wick through capillary action and then the liquefied fuel vaporizes to burn within the candle's flame.
