ARCTEC MIX KIT #3: tampico & hard horsehair & fine nylon
Hard Horsehair - coming from the tail or the mane of horses, it is a very fine hair that has excellent brushing properties and uniform distribution of brushed substances. The stiffness depends on the height of the cut which differentiates its use. The stiff horsehair is cut very short, therefore it is proposed for deep brushing in the micro-cavities of the ski-base after using the tampico and in any case before the final polishing. 3 brushing cycles are carried out from tip to tail with wavy movements (manual brushes), uniformly distributing and definitively removing the paraffin residues left by previous processes. The stiff horsehair brush is also used by many ski-men in the World Cup with a forward/backward movement exerting pressure on its entire surface for the uniform distribution of waxes after hot or cold application. The WORLD CUP manual brushes are made with an innovative and exclusive diagonal insertion, scientifically studied, which evenly distributes the brushing surface and increases the removal capacity of the paraffin.
Fine Nylon - the blue soft nylon brush is the most used brush in the World Cup for the final deep polishing of the ski-base structure. The fine wire and the short cut, combined with the narrow tuft insertion and the characteristics of non-deformability and elasticity typical of nylon, allow even the finest cuts of the ski structure to be polished. 3 brushing cycles are carried out from tip to tail with wavy movements, obtaining a perfectly shiny ski-structure ready for competitive performance. The WORLD CUP manual brushes are made with an innovative and exclusive diagonal insertion, scientifically studied, which evenly distributes the brushing surface and increases the removal capacity of the paraffin.
