Basic Surf Wax Mixture:
(Melt together at about 100F) 60-70% Paraffin Wax, 15-20% Microcrystalline Wax, 5-10% Petroleum Jelly, 5-10% Adhesive (Vistenex) Small amounts of Scent and dye.
The amount of petroleum jelly and wax needs to be adjusted for the water temperature in your region. If the Temp is warm in your region use more wax and less petroleum. If the water is cold use more petroleum and less wax. The Microcrystalline wax and Vistenex give it the "stickiness".
Watch out it can get real messy.
I shoud also say that neither Surfing Waves nor I can be held responsible for anything that happens as a result of your trying this out!!!!(ishould also take no credit for this jonny posted it quite a while back but i didnt know how to put a link to it )
