Make sure your ski bases are clean with no
serious gauges.
Make sure your edges are as sharp as you desire.
Make sure there is no rust on the edges.
Make sure it is in the comfort zone for all
waxing 62*f plus Fahrenheit.
In pre-wax preparation, roughing up the base
structure will make the base more receptive to ski wax. This
is accomplished by first using sandpaper, followed by Scotchbrite.
Ironing. Touch ski
wax to base of iron and allow the ski wax to drip to the base.
Ski Wax should not smoke during application. If it does, lower
the temperature of the iron. Smooth out the ski wax, using
the iron and make sure the iron is continually moving.
Scraping – Use a plastic scraper to
remove all excess ski wax. The base should be scraped very
clean for all snow conditions.
HINTS
The best way to clean the ski / snowboard
is to ski wax and scrape immediately.
The ski wax will draw impurities from the
base without drying it out.
Ski Wax should be kept on skis / snowboards
at all times when traveling.
Most ski waxes come with waxing charts that
are reliable. Use them please!
