SWIX WAXING BRUSHES Below are brushes needed for a good wax kit. There are two options; a bigger oval brush or a smaller rectangular brush. Oval vs Rectangular: 1. Oval brushes are great for the start area especially when you have gloves on. 2. Oval brushes cover more surface area. 3. Rectangular brushes are more economical. 4. Rectangular brushes dont take up as more space in your wax kit. 5. Both are great so it comes down to personal choice. Swix carries a broad range of Swix Waxing Brushes for everything from cleaning out the structure of the base to polishing up your top coat of race wax. A well prepped and finished base will get better performance and longevity out of your skis, so make sure you get the right tools for the job. Each brush has a fairly unique role in the waxing process: Brush Types Steel The most aggressive brush we stock. Useful when dealing with harder cold temperature waxes and when you really want to clean out old wax from the structure of your ski base. Coarse Bronze A step down in stiffness from the steel brush, the coarse bronze brush still offers deep cleansing capabilities whilst being more gentle on the base. Medium Bronze Our best selling cleaning brush. Stiff enough to get into all the grooves of the base without being overly aggressive. All Purpose Nylon If youre on a tight budget and arent too concerned with a high-quality finish then this brush is for you. Itll clean and polish reasonably well. Combi Bronze/Nylon A step up from the All Purpose Nylon brush, this combi brush features a bronze half for cleaning and a nylon half for polishing. Fine Nylon The go-to brush for polishing your base after waxing and getting a great finish to maximize glide. Horse Hair This is the brush youll want if youre dealing with high-end racing waxes and pure fluoro powders.
