When I stored my daughter’s skis in the spring, I cleaned the bases and used a generic all temperature ski wax. When I checked them last week I noticed that the wax looked dry, actually separated from the base in some areas. I scraped the wax, cleaned the bases using mineral spirits (actually it’s Formby’s Build-up Remover) followed by denatured alcohol, scraped again with a metal scraper, then re-waxed and scraped followed by brushing. She skied approximately 14,000 vertical today and the ski bases are dry/oxidized again. I think the bases are sintered, not extruded (Fischer Koa Sport). I have been doing the same prep on my skis for the past 20 years and can’t figure why it doesn’t work on her skis as well as mine. Thanks for any suggestions.
