Help with snowboard wax?

So I'm an idiot and I put surfboard wax on my snowboard without thinking about it. Surfboard wax causes friction and I think this is why my tail end is always lagging when I traverse which causes me to eat it. ya... so I scd a majority of it off for the most part, for some of the finer strips of wax I used steel wool not sure if that's bad for the board :/ will I be able to put regular snowboard wax on my board and suffer no more consequences from my stupid mistake? thanks
