Any wax has been good for urban for me. Most people just use a cheap wax. Ive even seen people steal soap out of their moms bathrooms and use that.

i have heard that waxing a rail does absolutely nothing. concrete ledges are a different story though.

by the way correct me if im wrong, this is just what i heard from other people.

Whenever i go urban i grab a pack of candles with me. aluminium handrails are a pain since the metal is so soft and u can easy catch an edge.
tip one: avoid aluminium, If it's a real sick spot and you really need to hit it wax that bitch up!
tip two: old rusty ordinary handrails could use some wax aswell, slide it with ur ski a bit first to remove any (if any) bigger chunks of ice, rust, metal chips etc.
tip three: don't get caught!

Normal white candle sticks work pretty good for rusty rails and rough ledges.. Don't make the mistake of using those fancy scented ones cuz they actually add stickiness.
