How To Make Skateboard Wax
Making your own skate wax is super easy and cost effective! Not only that, but skateboard wax can be used for multiple sports such as skimboarding and surfing. Therefore, if you use a lot of skate wax, it’s a great idea to make your own as you will save a lot of money. It’s also an easy and fun process so today I will be breaking it all down for you.
Materials
Paraffin
Beeswax
A Stove
A Pot
Molds
The process should take about 20 minutes of your time depending on the batch size:
In the pot, combine a mixture of beeswax and paraffin with a ratio of about 60% paraffin, 40% beeswax
Turn on the burner to a low setting to begin melting down the wax - it’s just like melting butter!
Stir the wax as the melting process continues, ensuring that all the wax melts down but does not burn.
Once it is all melted down, pour your wax into the molds and throw it in the refrigerator. It can take a few hours to fully solidify and you can put it in the freezer for a portion of the time to speed things up.
