Don't worry about it guys.  It is actually cool to have a board that looks like it is used and not stored in a closet all the time.  Plus it makes your board lesslikely to get stolen since some theives look for "brand new" looking boards that they can more easily resell for $$
Thats a super good point I never thought about that.

maybe the iron was too hot, or they used a lighter. thats the only way i could think the wax
would turn black other than imperfections. post a pic and we'll figure this out!
