Why buy Skate Scooter Wax?
How do I apply wax?
Rub the wax bar firmly along the ledge or rail until a thin layer is deposited. Test the surface by lightly sliding your board or deck to gauge slipperiness. Apply more if needed, but avoid making surfaces overly slick.
Can I wax too much?
Yes. Excessive wax can make surfaces dangerously slippery, leading to falls. Start with a light layer, test it and apply more only if necessary. Remove excess wax with a cloth or scraper.
Does wax work on rough concrete?
It helps, but very rough surfaces may still catch your deck. Grinding wheels and truck contact points smooth out rough spots before waxing.
Is skate wax different from candle wax?
Skate wax is formulated to withstand friction and heat generated during sliding. Candle wax can be softer and melt away quickly, providing inconsistent results.
Are there eco‑friendly waxes?
Yes. Some brands use natural waxes and biodegradable ingredients. Look for products labelled eco‑friendly if sustainability is a priority.
Can I use soap as wax?
In a pinch, bar soap can reduce friction, but it’s not as effective or durable as skate‑specific wax. Soap may also leave residue that attracts dirt and moisture.
Do rails always need wax?
Metal rails often slide without wax but benefit from light application to prolong their life. Wooden or concrete surfaces generally need wax for a proper slide.
