I've never heard of anyone being able to paint wax. It's simply too slippery for almost any paint to adhere to.

Is it true that if you boil a piece of crayon that it makes paint?

No, what you get is melted wax. Once you do anything with it the wax will solidify again. Melted wax is not paint and will really mess up all of your brushes. It could be a very interesting media to work with, but it will also burn you if the hot wax gets on you and the wax can catch fire.

Has car wax become obsolete in the view of new technology?

No, car wax has not become obsolete in the view of new technology. Let's look at the situation a bit more closely. Paint can oxidize and is affected by the elements. Though paints (called coatings by the industry) are improved constantly, there is still no paint that will not be attacked (however slowly) by weather and the other assaults on automotive finishes. Even a clearcoat is just another layer of paint. It is not a wax or sealant. Clearcoat dries out and oxidizes the same as paint, but more quickly. The idea of using clearcoat is to give the elements something else to attack other than the paint. Wax is applied for the same reason; the outer layer of wax takes the beating rather than clearcoat (if used) or the paint itself. Certainly wax will not last nearly as long a clearcoat, so it must be reapplied to be effective. And the clearcoat is not as resistant to oxidation as the paint, so it will "wear out" eventually and have to be reapplied to protect paint.
