How do I hot wax a SkiMD Refinish?
All refinshes come with a proprietary “grind accelerator” which makes the act of waxing, scraping and brushing obsolete prior to use. The grinds are at their smoothest and most absorbent state. Repeated hot wax cycling utilizing Dominator Base Renew with or without graphite is your best protection against base abrasion. The grinds are at their smoothest when leaving SkiMD. All one needs to do is wax layer over layer of hot wax, with no scraping or brushing between applications, incurring short durations of heat to the ski and its construction and delicate base material. This will ensure the least deformation of the base profile (extreme concavity) during the heating and cooling process. It also ensures maximum wax impregnation in a manner where the overall chassis of the ski is not subjected to long term heat duration thereby changing the profile cure of the base. DO NOT scrape and brush the skis until it’s time to take the first run! Trust me! Too much heat to a ski is THE ENEMY! One
