Dane Reynolds said once that Rasta's cross-hatch is a waste of time, but it gets a cleaner buildup, small bumps instead of blobs and smears. I use a sharp edge and do fine lines close together

how can I tell what type of wax I'm looking at? a base or a top coat ? and what's the difference between them?
@RiderShack2 жыл бұрын
Usually it will say on the packaging if it's a basecoat. A "Topcoat" wax will just give you a temp range for the water you'll be surfing in. For Sex Wax, their Tropical wax double as the basecoat too.

what does softer for topcoat mean? is it wax for cooler or warmer temperatures?
@RiderShack3 жыл бұрын
A softer wax you'd want to use in colder water temps.
@RiderShack3 жыл бұрын
Softer wax is for cooler temperatures. Harder is for warmer temperatures.

what is the difference between base and top coat
@RiderShack Жыл бұрын
Basecoat is a harder wax that is less prone to moving around on your board. Topcoat is softer and more tacky to give you grip. You don't need to use basecoat however, the soft top will move around over time leaving you with wax free spots on your deck.

Do you have to use basecoat
@RiderShack3 жыл бұрын
You don't have to do basecoat but it does help give you a good foundation that holds the texture and shape better
@RiderShack3 жыл бұрын
No, but it will help get better bumps and your wax job will last much longer

What temprature wax would you use as a basecoat
@RiderShack3 жыл бұрын
You would use a wax called base coat or Tropical. The warmer the wax the harder which is basically the same as basecoat.
@destinisanchez-warren32513 жыл бұрын
What is the name of the top coat you use?
@RiderShack3 жыл бұрын
The top Coat would be based on the Temperature you need. For example Warm, Cool, Cold, Tropical. All the brands will have the appropriate top coats. A warmer top coat is a harder wax wear a cold is softer.

How long till you rewax again? 5 sessions? Ish?
@RiderShack2 жыл бұрын
I personally re-wax my board once it gets grimy and ugly. Others here at the shop can't be bothered with it after initial waxing. Someone in the comments below mentioned re-waxing at every seasonal change. I happen to agree with that. As long as you have grip there's no wrong way to go about this.

@@RiderShack thank you so much man. I just bought my first board and wasn’t sure how much wax bars I’m actually gonna need. I’ll just go ahead and remove 10 pieces from my cart then, though I had to do that more often. Thanks again dude! New sub. I’m goin to surf in arctic Norway with killer whales and shait. Base coat indeed. Appreciate the help. No one I know surfs only snowboarders here
@RiderShack2 жыл бұрын
You should roughly need about 1/2 bar of basecoat and apply top coat as needed each session. it's not much.
