Summary for tin pans for candles Discussion
Tin pans for candles are the focus of this thread, where Donna Hiestand asks for a supplier of assorted pan sizes, accessories, and a tin paint-type can for a candle line. Tom Pullizzi first clarifies that the request may mean empty paint cans with lids or tin-plated steel, and suggests looking at companies that make reproduced embossed tin panels for interior decorating, since they may also offer precut sheets. Sean Corcoran then provides a more direct lead, saying he found a supplier called Village Metals in Rochester, NY, which supplies .010 gauge tin-plate steel in 33-inch widths and can sell in the quantity needed. The practical takeaway is that the discussion points toward tin-plate steel suppliers and decorative tin panel manufacturers rather than a single candle-specific tin source.
Q. I am looking for a tin supplier for candles. I need a variety of sizes of pans and other accessories. Also looking for a tin paint type can to add to my candle line. please email any info.

A. Are you looking for empty paint cans w/lids?
Sorry if I don’t understand the request.
If you haven’t found the tin plated steel yet, you might try the folks who make the reproductions of the old embossed tin panels for interior decorating. I was working for a stamping company who had the job of embossing sheets sized about 2 feet square. They were precut, so maybe someone can offer them to you, too.
Best regards, Tom
