The most recent great advancement in ski wax has been the use of surfactants and fluorocarbons to increase water and dirt repellency and therefore increase glide.
Treatments that offer cloth-top protection and water repellency are available, and can be applied ahead of winter driving for an added layer of protection.
Common features that each paint possesses are outstanding corrosion/chemical resistance, moisture repellency, weather-ability, and most importantly the highest performance value and customer satisfaction.
It was also found by the research team that alterations of the smoothness and rubberiness of the coating can fine-tune its degree of ice repellency and durability.
