Surf wax makes your board or whatever sticky so surf wax is for sticking. Curb wax is normally used for sliding with grinds, so it's slippery.
Surf wax = sticky
Curb wax = slippery
There is no wax separately for curbs and rails. You could use wax for curbs or rails. Most of the time a rail doesn't need wax, because it's so slippery. But if you do use wax for a rail, you'll end up falling on your a**!

You can, but bees wax, the proper method, is harder than paraffin. The paraffin seal will not stand up as long as beeswax.
Solvent wax refers to solvents that remove wax. The solvent is able to dissolve, or get rid of, the wax.
Lye is the simple inorganic compound Sodium Hydroxide NaOH ... occasionally Potassium Hydroxide KOH is called "potassium lye" or "potash lye". A wax is an organic compound having between 20 and 50 carbon atoms arranged in a chain. The simplest petroleum waxes are alkane hydrocarbons called paraffins. The softest paraffin is C20H42, while C50H102 is a much harder wax. Natural waxes produced by plants and animals are more complex, and usually contain a few oxygen atoms along with a preponderance of carbon and hydrogen. For example, the main compound in beeswax is Triacontanylpalmitate and its chemical formula is C30H61CO2C15H31.
Generally more energy is in a solid versus a liquid, so a wax candle will have more energy than an oil based candle which means the solid wax candle will burn out last over the oil one. Actually, I can't think of a case where the reverse is true. And btw, wax candle has around 42 kJ/g with oil candle being around ~30 kJ/g (type of oil will make a difference here). tho' i agree with most of the above, the most important part of any candle is the oil/oil byproduct/animal fat or beeswax that it is made from! a wax candle will NOT burn until it heats up enough to dissolve into an oil - which occurs between 140-160 degrees! therefore, an oil candle and a wax candle burn out at the same time!
The Price.
No

yes
I don't knw!:(
skate wax is less mesy than candle wax
Here is a site that talks about surfboard waxing and how to do it www.surfscience.com/topics/learn-to-surf/.../how-to-wax-a-surfboard , or this site that shows you how to wax the surf board www.wikihow.com/Wax-a-Surfboard
no because the sun will probably melt the wax which will then just make it sticky
To be stupid, one is cold and the other is warm, but to be smart the cold wax may be stiffer and harder to spread, while the warm wax will be easier to spread but more slippery. If you use wax a lot try just use sing it at room temperature. It should work! ;)
warm water and wax comb
they put some melted wax on it before they surf so the don't fall of when they are surfing.
The difference between a wax and silicone treadmill lubricant is that a silicone lubricant will last a lot longer. Soft wax is the most commonly used and cheaper than silicone.
