For the stick that gets away
On stage, hot lights and hard work make you sweat, and a runaway stick sometimes ends up in the crowd. This wax tackles the problem at the source by adding a tacky feel, on a drumstick or a mallet alike. Zildjian says it leaves hands clean, with no gummy residue, and smells of tropical fruit.
