How do i get old wax off my surfboard without scratching it?

Answer 1

leave the board in the sun for 15 minutes and then use a wax comb to scrape it off

Answer 2

Surfammo has it right. You don't need any special stuff, just sun and old credit card.

Answer 3

Put your board in the sun for 10-15 minutes, then scape off the old wax with an old credit card. You don't need any special wax removers.

Answer 4

Leave your board wax-up in the sun so it gets all soft, then scrap it off.

Answer 5

Like what the previous guy said leave it out in the sun for the wax to melt.

You can usually buy a wax comb at most surf shops. ). It is a plastic comb thingy that is stronger and more big teethy than a normal comb.

Also a rag will be needed.

Once the wax has melted a bit on the board (feeling soft) you should be able to start using the wax comb a lot easier. Tilt it at a 45 degree angle and start pushing along taking off maybe 6-10 inches of wax off each time.

Once that process is done to the best you possibly can do, then take the rag and take the rest of the wax off in a circular motion.
