Slippery seat

[RTG]

It's more like a sticky wax rather than traditional parafin or bee's wax. Similar to 'Sex Wax', (surfboard wax) it provides traction in wet conditions. Sex Wax itself is designed for gaining traction on a wet fibreglass (non-porous) surfboard. You could even try surfboard wax, except I would put it on like a thin layer of polish rather than just arbitrarily rubbing it on thick.

(there are other brands of surfboard wax as well as Sex Wax)

Something to do with Caracoles.
