  1. wax can be..

    Candle wax, crayons, and soap.

    or go to a skateshop and buy wax there


  2. i dont skate i inline but i have the same problem

    are u tryin on a just plain out concrete curb?

    if you are

    try to find a painted curb they allready slide

    and i think world industries makes a huge thing of was for curbs

  3. Seal the concrete with several coats of clear sparay paint.  The paint might be enough so you don;t have to use wax.  

    Use canning wax (Gulfwax) available in local supermarkets, it;s about $1.00 for a big block.  

    If the curb is too hot, the wax will just melt into the pores of the concrete.

    If too cold, then the wax doesn't stick.

    If the humidity is too high, the wax becomes sticky.
