Universal Tar

-1…-25°C

One of our most praised grip waxes. It is good for skiers who are looking for simplicity in their waxing, as well as for racing skiers. Despite its Universal name it is fully proven race wax, especially at mild frosts (-1...-8°C).

Using grip wax using from start to finish – base preparation and glide waxing

  1. Tape off the grip zone.
  2. Roughen the grip zone with sandpaper and clean off the sanding dust.
  3. Apply a layer of Rex base wax. (You can also use liquid Rex Base Wax, which is a faster method.)
  4. Heat the base wax with a heat gun or waxing iron.
  5. Smooth it with a cork.
  6. Apply a thin layer of Rex grip wax according to the conditions.
  7. Smooth it with a cork.
  8. Repeat the application of grip wax 2-4 times, smoothing the wax after each layer. Apply thinner wax to both ends of the grip zone and thicker wax in the middle.
  9. Typically, you will need 2-4 layers of wax. The required amount depends on the stiffness of the ski and personal preferences. You can add wax even on the track.
