WHAT IS WAX?

[JeffOYB]

How is wax made? What is it?

How do make kick wax for the different temperatures?

How is some glide wax get fast-glide and slow-glide properties?

Is there any reverse engineering published or has any knowledgeable person, previous employee, etc., spilled the beans?

OK, I know "hydrocarbon." ...But isn't that what gasoline is? It seems like a very big possible range of substances.
