View full detailsThis is how solid glide waxes work
Solid glide waxes, often called paraffin waxes, are the foundation of all glide waxing. They are applied with an iron and provide durable, even, and long-lasting glide. A harder wax is used in colder temperatures, while a softer wax is better suited for milder conditions.
When should you use solid glide waxes?
- As a base wax for training and competition.
- When you want a durable and long-lasting glide.
- To saturate and protect the base with regular waxing.
How to apply glide wax
- Clean the base thoroughly and brush out the structure.
- Drip and melt the wax onto the warm iron.
- Iron in the wax with smooth strokes over the entire base.
- Let it cool completely, then scrape off the excess.
- Brush with steel and nylon brushes until the surface is shiny and clean.
Advantages of solid glide waxes
- Very durable and long-lasting.
- Provides even glide even on longer trips.
- Protects and saturates the base over time.
Limitations
Solid glide waxes require more equipment and time than liquid wax. For quick everyday waxing, liquid is a simpler option, but for long-lasting performance, solid glide waxes are unbeatable.
FAQ – Common questions about solid glide waxes
Do I always need to use solid glide waxes?
Yes, they are the foundation of all waxing and should be used regularly to protect the base.
Are solid glide waxes only for competitive skiers?
No, they are equally suitable for recreational skiers who want durable skis with good glide.
Can I combine solid and liquid glide waxes?
Yes, often a solid wax is applied as a base and complemented with liquid for quick effect.
How many layers should I apply?
One to two layers are usually sufficient, but for competition or saturation of new skis, more may be needed.
