Making ledges grind/slide
« on: April 11, 2009, 09:43:47 AM »
Yo!

Me and my friend found these concrete ledges. The spot is really cool. The ground is good, and the ledges look good. Only problem is that I dont think they will grind if we wax them.. They might be a little "rough". Anybody got any tips on how to make the ledges "smooth"?

I bet that clear lacquer works like a charm.

Rub brick + lacquer is the best thing for a ledge..my friends and I have done up a few spots around here; it works like a charm

Wax that shit up!

Paint it first if you have to.

Just skate red & yellow curbs and bring home-made crayon wax. It's all that I ever do.
