Sauce or wax on fresh coping?
« on: July 27, 2013, 10:47:04 PM »
friend is building a mini ramp in his backyard and has fresh metal coping and wondering if it would be best to use wax on it first to get it to grind, or if we can go straight to saucing it? which is best?

you could spray it w/clear or color enamel if you're worried about rust

Fine, I will admit it... Sometimes I run 1 swipe of wax against my trucks.

Originated from Salba as far as I know.  Clear enamel sprayed to pool coping.  Same technique can be used on fresh ledges preferably after using a rub brick.  I never heard of it being used on metal coping.

Waxy wheels on masonite sounds like a bad combination. If you and your friends grind the coping a bunch, it will get faster without wax or clear coat. Breaking in coping is fun.

use Pam or "i cant believe its not butter" spray, prevents sticking on metal surfaces, the generic brand will do just fine as well

I saw roller bladers put turtle wax all over coping once, that was fun watching them fuck themselves up on that.

by "sauce" im assuming you mean lacquer. and no never lacquer metal coping. also never wax a quarter pipe. just skate fast, if you can actually grind this shouldnt be a problem.

wax can be fun. you can be lazy and do long grinds at the same time. sometimes effort is hard

Waxing coping. . . this is a thing? Unless that coping is some rusty pipe with insane corrosion, then no, you don't need it.

if your really sticking, just wax your trucks a little. i hate when people wax coping especially without asking when multiple people are skating whatever it is getting waxed
