LP2 BLUE

Solid, low-fluoride paraffin for competitive use as a finishing product or as a base for applying FP4 perfluorinated waxes. Suitable for snow temperatures from -25° to -10°C. Humidity ranges from 20% to 60%. Excellent for periods without snowfall. Hot application with a waxing iron.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES

The application of hydrocarbon paraffins (Med or Soft Racing Base or BP1), fluorinated hydrocarbon paraffins (LP2 or HP3) and perfluorinated waxes FP4 allows certain overlaps based on the following chemical affinities:
Hydrocarbon paraffin alone (Med or Soft Racing Base or BP1) or mixed with other hydrocarbon paraffins;
Fluorinated hydrocarbon paraffin alone (LP2 or HP3) or mixed with other hydrocarbon paraffins;
Perfluorinated wax FP4 alone or mixed with other perfluorinated waxes but in any case superimposed on a fluorinated hydrocarbon paraffin (LP2 or HP3).
The direction in waxing operations must always be from the tip to the tail of the tool.
Racing waxing can be done hot or cold depending on the physical state of the products and the experience of the skiman.

APPLICATION METHOD WITH WAXING IRON

• Drip the paraffin block onto the base for 20 cm, placing it in contact with the base of the waxing iron at a temperature of 150°C.
• Then spread the wax with a regular forward motion (from tip to tail). Repeat the operation for the entire base and finally make a continuous pass from tip to tail.
• Wait at least 15 minutes to allow the wax to solidify and the base to cool;
• Remove excess wax with a sharp plexiglass spatula, applying little pressure;
• Free the side of the ski and the lateral face of the edges from solidified paraffin;
• Free the imprint with a soft steel manual brush;
• Brush the impression with a manual or rotating brush made of stiff hair;
• Polish the impression with a manual or rotating soft nylon brush.
