RECOMMENDED APPLICATION OF CERA F POWDER<br />
IRONED ONCE - FC8X, FC10X, FC10B0<br />
A standard package of 30 grams normally is enough to wax 3 pairs of free-technique skis<br />
(skating skis) or 4 pairs of classical skis (tip and tail waxing). A sufficient layer of powder<br />
has to be applied. If the layer is too thin, the high temperature of the iron might destroy<br />
the base.<br />
Before the application of Cera F, the skis have to be waxed with the actual, traditional<br />
wax for today’s conditions. Follow steps 3 to 8 given in the section “Glide-Waxing For<br />
Today’s Competition”, pages 32-33.<br />
3.<br />
After cooling to room temperature (5 min.)<br />
brush the powder up from the base with the<br />
Stiff Black Nylon Brush (T194). 5-10 strokes.<br />
1.<br />
Distribute the Cera F powder evenly on the<br />
base. Don’t forget to apply enough powder to<br />
protect the base from direct contact with the<br />
iron.<br />

Continue with the Wild Boar Brush (T164).<br />
10-20 strokes.<br />
2.<br />
Move the iron in one continuous pass<br />
from tip to tail on each side of the groove.<br />
Recommended iron temperature setting<br />
for FC8X and FC10X is 160°C. For FC10B0 the<br />
temperature setting should be approx. 150°C.<br />
One pass with the iron from tip to tail takes<br />
approx. 5 seconds.<br />
5.<br />
Finish with the Blue Nylon Brush (T160).<br />
3 - 4 strokes.<br />
IMPORTANT:<br />
The powder will not completely melt and<br />
the base might look partly white after this<br />
initial treatment.<br />
