One prime example that comes to mind is the stripped peacock quill body of the Quill Gordon (and others) – wax will make a flexible bond on that material – where regular floatant (liquid) will not.

I use paste floatant for the same reason – better adhesion on some materials (and some temps)

There was another company that made bow string wax, but I can’t remember their name. The wax was a deep purple/black color- really good stuff.

Surf wax is better only because it gives you an icebreaker to engage all those gals tanning themselves at the beach …

“Excuse me, but which wax do you use?” – (stutter) for your board I mean …
