Dude, stop ruining your mom's clothing iron with wax and just get the DaKine Adjustable Tuning Iron. With beveled edges for smooth gliding movements over your plank(s) you won't be hassled with the task of waxing your whip anymore; in fact you'll be practicing "wax on wax off" movements in your sleep after using this baby. Get yourself the DaKine Adjustable Tuning Iron for Mother's Day, it's the thought that counts.
