Hello all,
Got some skis I'm getting ready to run through a few cycles of waxing rather than hot boxing. I've read it said that "got boxing skis is like waxing skis XX number of times," so am curious if those are full wax/scrape cycles.
When you're not trying to clean out the bases, and instead are waxing with the intention of getting the wax deep into the base, is the following a thing?
Put on a thick layer of base prep wax, then iron it in. Wait for ski to cool, then iron it in again. Repeat however much you want. Then scrape, etc.
I'm pretty new to tuning, so let me know if this works like I'm imagining it would. Do people do this? I'd imagine that'd be just as effective, easier, and waste less wax.
Thanks
Nate
