How to apply kick wax using an iron

How to apply wax on your skis using an iron. This is the most common way to proceed when you want the best possible result. The base wax is heated to ensure better resistance, so you will have a good grip on the entire ski trip. If you skip rubbing the ski with sandpaper and apply base wax, you must expect that the kick wax will wear off the skis early on during the ski trip.

Instructions

1. Rub the kick wax area using sandpaper

2. Apply base wax using an iron

3. Let the ski and wax cool down a few minutes

4. Apply 6-7 thin layers with kick wax of your choice

5. Cork between each layer

6. If you're applying two kick waxes, apply the softest one first
