Treatment of New Boards & Skis<br />
STEP BY STEP TREATMENT OF BOARDS AND SKIS WHEN<br />
NEW OR AFTER STONE GRINDING<br />
Skis or boards put through a stone grinder and structured by hand need accurate followup<br />
treatment for optimum performance. This process depends partly on the type of<br />
pattern given to the base.<br />
Cold snow patterns need more extensive treatment than wet snow patterns.<br />
It is very critical that all micro-burrs are removed from the base, in cold snow conditions.<br />

1.<br />
Work the base with Swix Fibertex T266N,<br />
violet color, both directions at least 100 times.<br />
This removes oxidation and polyethylene<br />
micro fibers (hairs) from the surface.<br />
2.<br />
During the Fibertex treatment, use the Steel<br />
Brush (T179) from time to time to help lift and<br />
expose fibers to be cut away with the Fibertex.<br />
3.<br />
Base edge filing with Chrome file (T107X<br />
or T106X). Use Swix Base Edge Bevel Guide<br />
(TA005). 0.5° bevel is most common.
