APPLICATION METHOD

GENERAL PRINCIPLES

The application of hydrocarbon paraffins (Med or Soft Racing Base or BP1), fluorinated hydrocarbon paraffins (LP2 or HP3) and perfluorinated waxes FP4 allows certain overlaps based on the following chemical affinities:
Hydrocarbon paraffin alone (Med or Soft Racing Base or BP1) or blended with other hydrocarbon paraffins;
Fluorinated hydrocarbon paraffin alone (LP2 or HP3) or mixed with other hydrocarbon paraffins;
Perfluorinated wax FP4 alone or mixed with other perfluorinated waxes, but in any case over fluorinated hydrocarbon paraffin (LP2 or HP3).
The direction of the wax must always run from the tip to the end of the mould.
Depending on the physical condition of the products and the experience of the ski manager, hot or cold waxing can be used.

COLD APPLICATION WITH MERINO WOOL ROLLERS

- Spray the wax with at least 10 sprays onto the 5 mm or 10 mm thick merino wool roller and turn it slowly. (the choice of roller depends on the friction to be generated);
- Then roll the surface of the slab from the tip to the end with forward/backward movements at a speed of between 1000 and 1500 revolutions depending on the pressure applied. Roll until the plate is completely saturated. Repeat the application twice, dividing the sheet into two parts;
- Wait at least 15 minutes to allow the wax to solidify;
- Brush the insole with forward and backward movements, applying pressure with a stiff horsehair hand brush;
- Brush and polish the insole with a horsehair or soft nylon hand or rotary brush;
- Polish the insole with a 10 mm thick merino wool roller. (Use a different roller)
- Brush the insole with a manual or rotary brush made of stiff horsehair;
- Brush and polish the insole with a manual or rotating brush made of horsehair or soft nylon;
- Polish the insole with a 10 mm thick merino wool roller.

COLD APPLICATION WITH CORK PAD AND HAND BRUSH

- Spray the wax onto the insole over a length of approx. 15 cm at a maximum distance of 5 cm, taking about 2 sprays every 5 cm;
- Then rub and press the wax into the dispensing area with a cork pad (the MT0111 pad/brush is very useful) while it is still liquid and repeat the process on the entire plate;
- Wait at least 15 minutes to allow the wax to solidify;
- Brush the insole with forward and backward movements, applying pressure with a stiff horsehair hand brush;
- Polish the insole with a horsehair hand brush or a soft nylon brush;

HOT APPLICATION METHOD WITH HEAT PUMP - AIR HEATER GUN

- Spray the wax onto the insole over a length of approx. 15 cm at a maximum distance of 5 cm, applying about 2 coats every 5 cm;
- Then allow the still liquid wax to penetrate the application area by rubbing and pressing with a cork pad (the MT0111 pad/brush is useful) and repeat the process on the entire plate;
- Remove the melted wax with a stiff brush (MT0111 buffer/brush is useful) and melt it again, making a second pass as before;
- Then roll the surface of the panel with a cork or polyester roller at a drilling speed of between 1000 and 1500 rpm depending on the pressure applied;
- Wait at least 15 minutes to allow the plate to cool and the wax to set;
- Brush the insole with a manual or rotating stiff horsehair brush;
- Brush and polish the insole with a manual or rotating brush made of horsehair or soft nylon;
- Polish the insole with a 10 mm thick merino wool roller.


To avoid inhaling fluorocarbide vapours, the use of a face mask with a filter cartridge is recommended.
