View full detailsThis is how rotary brushes work
Rotary brushes are machine brushes mounted on a drill or screwdriver. They are used to quickly brush out the base after waxing and to polish a smooth and shiny surface. With a rotary brush, you save time and achieve a more consistent result compared to hand brushes.
Advantages of rotary brushes
- Significantly faster than traditional hand brushes.
- Provides a more even and professional result.
- Perfect for waxing teams, clubs, and those who wax many pairs of skis.
- Reduces physical effort during brushing.
Different types of rotary brushes
- Steel rotor – opens the structure and removes hard residues.
- Brass rotor – all-round for cleaning and pre-brushing.
- Horsehair rotor – used for wax removal and polishing.
- Nylon rotor – standard for final finish, provides a shiny surface.
How to use rotary brushes
- Mount the rotary brush on the drill and use a protective cover for safety.
- Always brush in the direction of the ski – from tip to tail.
- Maintain even pressure and let the brush do the work.
- Use different brushes in the correct order: coarse first, nylon/horsehair last.
Tips for best results
- Invest in several different rotary brushes for different steps.
- Clean the brushes regularly to avoid mixing wax residues.
- Always use safety glasses and preferably a vacuum cleaner to minimize particles in the air.
FAQ – Common questions about rotary brushes
Do I need rotary brushes as a recreational skier?
No, hand brushes are sufficient for most. Rotary brushes are best if you wax frequently or many pairs of skis.
Can I use the same rotary brush for everything?
You can, but for best results, several different brushes are recommended for different steps.
Are rotary brushes dangerous to use?
No, but always use a protective cover and glasses – the brushes rotate quickly. A must when working with steel rotary brushes!
What speed should I use?
A relatively high speed is preferred, ideally about 1500–2000 rpm for best control and results.
