Infrared (IR) Waxer

Sale price Price $249.95 Regular price $249.95 Unit price  per 

We just sold out of IR WAXERS (again!). We have a new shipment arriving in mid January 2025. If you would like to secure your IR Waxer, we encourage you to order it now. The new shipment will likely move fast.

2024 Version - We made a bunch of improvements to the IR Waxer this season. More robust bulbs + filaments. Fine tuned the wavelength for improved wax absorption (nerdy but noticeable). Better heat reflector - sends more heat towards the wax and less towards your hand. Now comes with a sweet travel case.   

Our patent-pending IR Waxer is a game-changer for at home waxing. It's the tuning tool you never knew you couldn't live without! 

  • EFFECTIVE: The IR waxer helps the bases to absorb more wax. You can actually watch the wax disappear into the bases as you are waxing
  • SUSTAINABLE: This device uses very little wax (~90% less wax than the traditional wax iron technique). Plus there is no wax being scraped off the ski and onto your floor
  • EASY TO USE: The IR waxer eliminates the need for scraping. Simply brush out the bases and you're ready to rip!
  • SAVES MONEY: It makes your bar of wax last much longer
  • WORKS ON ALL EQUIPMENT: Great for Alpine, Nordic, + Snowboard.

ALL THE PERFORMANCE. NONE OF THE SCRAPING. Get the performance of a full hot wax, without any of the mess!

PAIRS WELL WITH IR WAXER: Happy Norwegian Tuning Stands, Wax Brush Set, + Hot Wax Set.

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Currently the IR Waxer only operates in 110v. If purchasing for use in a country without 110v outlets, you will need a voltage converter to operate the unit.

    Get one, you really won't regret it

    Works excellent on skis, 10/10, never seen anything like it, fantastic ... on snowboards? ... Takes about as long as doing 3-4 whole skis ... in other words, the design is optimized for skis, 10/10, but definitely still works on a snowboard, 8/10, just takes some extra time / takes a little more getting used to; and doesn't save as much time on the waxing part, but sure does save time on scraping, just skips that step altogether, which is great. Just brush, quick polish, and go.

    I've been using a hot iron waxer for several decades, and now been using the IR waxer for a little while. Overall, I'm now using the IR waxer on a daily basis, and it is a great tool to have. The jury is still out on whether I'll use the hot iron waxer for storage waxes (likely), or for spring waxing (to help get the dirt and grime off), but definitely now using the IR waxer on a daily basis, and is good for day to day use.

    Get one, you really won't regret it (as long as the durability is there), it saves time overall, and the results are as good or better than most all hot iron waxes.

    Too easy

    Seems like it’s to quick and easy. It’s difficult for me to tell if I’m putting enough wax on my bases. There’s no left over wax on the floor like there is when I scrap my bases something I’m definitely not used to. But my skis seem to guide ok so I’m assuming all is good. At this rate my wax inventory will last for many seasons

    Great Waxing Tool

    I have two pair of Nordic skis, two pair of backcountry skis, and two pair of alpine skis and it’s a fair amount of work to keep them all waxed. I’ve had a chance now to try out the IR Waxer and so far I’m very impressed at how quick and easy it’s making the whole process. My technique has been to bring skis into our utility room to warm up. I then use a brass brush to open up the pores on the ski base followed by crayoning wax and then using the IR waxer. It does take a number of passes to really see the wax liquifying into to base but no more time than it would take with several passes of an iron. I then generally let them cool for at least 15 minutes (more if time permits) before simply brushing with a stiff nylon brush which is so much incredibly easier and faster than scraping and then brushing! Not to mention there’s virtually no clean up. I have used it with Nordic waxes and with the Mountain Flow waxes and results have been very good. Particularly with Nordic skis it’s easy to know when you’ve gotten your waxing right and so far I’ve been impressed. One final note is that I was concerned the IR waxer might be heavy and cumbersome but it was smaller and lighter than I expected and has been easy handle.

    Interesting technology, some downsides

    I do like this method of waxing. One thing I learned the hard way was to be careful with crayoning the wax on. Not being used to that, I sliced my finger open on the ski edges right away. I think it takes a bit more time on application but not having to scrape makes it worth it.

    Amazing upgrade

    I have been tuning and waxing skis for over 50 years. This is truly revolutionary just rub on wax glide infrared heater over till there is a full melt then buff. I haven’t had to scrape yet.
