Application Instructions
Good to know:
The application of GIGAGLIDE is completely different to wax, as GIGAGLIDE is water-based and does not seal the base.
While wax “seals” the base, GIGAGLIDE penetrates the base, settles there and makes the base itself “faster”. Therefore, you will not notice that the ski becomes “saturated” or “greasy”.
Instructions for use:
The base of your winter sports equipment should be free of wax, otherwise GIGAGLIDE cannot penetrate the base.
Please remove any remaining wax, brush it off or use ski wax remover.
If the ski has been treated with fluor wax in the past, a professional deep cleaning is necessary!
GIGAGLIDE and fluorine wax do not mix, even if the fluorine was applied some time ago!
For the best effect:
1. The ski should be dry before application
- GIGAGLIDE lasts for 5-10 days on the slopes if left on for 12 hours (depending on snow and temperature)
- GIGAGLIDE lasts at least 1 day on dry skis with 5 minutes application time
2. No stripping necessary! -> the structure of the ski remains intact!
3. Ideally, polish lightly with a cotton cloth (not a microfiber cloth!) after drying.
(not absolutely necessary, but it shortens the time until the
GIGAGLIDE glide effect is activated)
Storage:
GIGAGLIDE is water-based and must not freeze, otherwise the mixture is “broken” - never store below -6 degrees! (freezing point = minus 6 degrees Cel)
