I know that it is not something we think about very often, but I have just discovered that there IS a difference between different string wax products. The New Bohning Xcelerator is infinitely better than the old Bohning Tex-Tite stuff, IMO. (It's the one in the red chap-stick type applicator.) For starters, it is softer, so it really seems to work into the string better. And it actually seems to condition the string because of this. Another thing is that it does not seem to ball up into little boogers and fly off the string either! Just thought I would share my new found discovery.
