fluorinated water-glide-wax

Water-glide-wax for the application on surfboards, windsurfers, jetskis and power-boats is used for improving the gliding properties. It creates a solid layer in order to reduce friction between the surfboard and the water. Water-glide-wax offers an extremely low surface tension which of course results in a higher water repellence of the surfboard on the water and therefore in higher speeds and excellent sliding properties. A surfboard in motion possesses kinetic energy and the more of this energy it maintains, the faster and easier it will move.

Application:

Before you apply Dr. Gudjons water-glide-wax make sure that the surface of your surfboard should be really dry and clean. Otherwise the wax won't be fixed sufficiently. We recommend outdoor treatment and a liquid temperature of about 30 to 35 ° C. Shake well before using. You may either apply the liquid wax using a paint-brush or a small piece of soft cloth. You may also use an airbrush-system or atomizer. Make sure that you don't breath in the solvent and avoid smoking when treating your surfboard! Allow the wax coat to dry for at least one hour (preferably 8 hours). After the wax has totally dried up you may offer the surface a further treatment by polishing it with a soft brush or soft cloth.
