How can I make a wooden surface slick?

Question

I made a homemade baggo/cornhole game and when checking the finished product, I noticed that the bags basically just stuck on the wood (very little slide). In playing on an actual board, the bags slide up and off the board unless you have the right touch. Is there some sort of way to make the surface more slippery? Using lacquer or something?

Answer 1

Wax the surface with a good old fashioned paste wax.  Do not use todays car waxes, it won't work.  When the wax has dried, buff it like there is no tomorrow.  This will be as slick as a baby's ***.

Answer 2

very fine grain sandpaper should do the trick.

\You can always put a coat of clear poly on too.
