Thanks Stuart;
You get different grades of wax for differing snow conditions - hard
wax for
dry new powder snow etc.
I just want to eliminate the messing about with a hot iron to apply
the wax
that's all...

Unless you're something of a seriously serious skier, AFAIK, wax is wax


Only in the sense that oil is oil.
Carnauba wax is super slippery, and beeswax pretty tacky, although, at
those temperatures, it would be a good deal harder.
Is the wax for protection of the skis or to make them go faster?
Cellulose thinners will dissolve any wax and, if you don't wipe it off,
will simply re-distribute it.
