Yes, the newer waxed papers use a different kind of wax than what they used years ago. It is more solid, not waxy feeling. I've found that CA kinda sticks but the paper can easily be pulled off. I just used wax paper for a 100" glider build and it worked just fine with minimal problems. Clear plastic wraps might be a better choice these days but I'd use wax paper again. Look for a thicker clear wrap w/o texture or it can be a pain to handle.
