FAQS

IR GUIDE

Q: What are the dimensions of the GUIDE?
A: The guide bars are 210cm long. Big enough for your DH boards or your uncle's old straight skis

Q: What size table do I need?
A: The vertical supports are only 4' apart, so the whole appartus can fit on a 4' table.

Q: Is it hard to setup?
A: From 0 to IKEA, it's closer to 0. Many of the pieces are pre-assembled.

Q: Is it worth it?
A: Is it necessary, probably not. Is it worth it, heck yeah! We developed this product because customers kept asking for it. Now we can't keep it in stock.

IR WAXER

Q: I really don't need to scrape!?
A: Nope! With a traditional wax iron, extra wax is required to protect the base from the iron. With an infrared waxer, you're using indirect heat and thus only need to apply enough wax that can be absorbed into the base. Thus, a wax brush is very effective at removing any extra wax. 


Q: What brushes should I get?
A: We love the Roto Brushes - they are faster and more effective. Hand brushes work great too but just take a bit more time.


Q: What is the wattage?

A: 800w (2 400w bulbs) 


Q: What is the voltage requirement?

A: We have two versions. In the US, the IR Waxer uses a standard 110v plug. For Europe and international use, the IR Waxer uses a 220v plug.

Q: How close to the base do I need to hold the device? 


A: Proximity to the base is the primary mechanism for controlling heat. The closer/longer you hold it in one spot, the hotter that spot will get. We recommend holding the waxer around 2-4 inches from the base of the ski/snowboard

Q: Can I still burn my bases?
A: Yes. Just like any heat source, if you leave it in one place for too long, you can burn the base. However, it is difficult to do and almost requires a deliberate action.


Q: Does it work with all waxes?
A: Absolutely! The IR Waxer will work with any hot wax. 


Q: What are the dimensions of the unit? 

A: ~8.5 in x 5 in x 7.5 in.


Q: Does the IR Waxer work with all types of equipment? XC skis, snowboards, etc

A: Yes, you can use the IR Waxer with alpine skis, XC skis, and snowboards.

Great product

Worked with this a little bit at the end of the ski season and think it will be a great asset to my ski prep gear.

Overall pleased and don’t regret my purchase one bit.

The rails are built quite sturdy which was a pleasant surprise. My only minor complaint with the system is the lamp isn’t big enough to cover an entire snowboard at once. I can only do half at and time then have to flip it, which isn’t a big deal, but I was kind of hoping/thinking it would do the entire board at once. Perfect for a single ski. Then with the rail system I had to screw it down to my bench to take a twist out of the rail so it would run a consistent flat without teetering. Which is fine for my waxing bench setup, but wouldn’t work well if you were planning to just set it on a table top or bench you couldn’t put screws through. I waxed 3 boards right out the gate and it was fairly quick. I found that after I got the wax melted into the board if I used a cork over it, it helped to spread the wax out to areas the crayoning missed and then run a couple more passes over with the lamp seemed to work fairly well. It definitely took multiple slow passes to get the board warm enough to accept and melt the wax, which makes the rail system an arm saver. My only worry is when the infrared lamps inevitably burn out, will I be able to get replacements and will they be at a fair price?

Game Changer!

The best combo in skiing since cocoa and schnapps. I was just getting into tuning my gear and heard a lot about the Infrared Waxer. I was already pretty sold on it but once I saw the new rail system, I was all in! They had a demo setup at Snowbound in Boston and I saw it in action. I can't wait for mine to arrive.
