Question: will a candle melt in my car?
Answer: Yes, candles can melt in a hot car, but how long it takes depends on the type of candle wax and the temperature inside the vehicle. Wax melts between 99-145 °F and the temperature inside of a vehicle can be 130-170 °F. A candle left in a hot car can melt within 25 minutes to 2 hours.
