The choice of World Cup technicians, the large Soft Nylon Oval includes hand strap and is the best universal brush for skis and snowboards. For best results do not use the same brush applying paraffin waxes ie. P1 that will be used when applying flouro wax ie. P4 (use one brush for paraffin wax only and another to apply flouro wax only). Brushes should be used in one direction (tip to tail) in order to remove excess wax from base structure after scraping, to clean and prepare the base for wax penetration, or to set up flouro powder for uniform base penetration in special cases.
