Do not use nylon. It will melt and send molten bits of plastic flying (possibly landing on you or others or onto something flamable and causing a fire)
Read this https://www.homeofpoi.com/articles/wick.htm

answers to a lot of your questions can probably be found here https://www.homeofpoi.com/articles/guide.htm
