Waxing your board at home is easy if you have the right materials. Before you begin, make sure your board is at room temperature. This ensures that the wax will hold firmly to the base. It's also important that your work space is well ventilated and free of objects that could be ruined by dripping hot wax or dried wax shavings.

Step 1
Use an old rag or paper towel to apply Citrus Base Cleaner to the base of your snowboard. It is important to remove all dirt from the base before applying new wax. Any edge trims or base repairs should be done after cleaning the base and before waxing.

Step 2
Once you've made sure all dirt is removed from the base and it's dry to the touch, plug in your iron and set the temperature to 120-140 degrees. The iron should be hot enough to melt the wax, but not so hot that it smokes. Every iron is different, so adjust the temperature as needed.

Step 3
Once the iron is hot, hold the iron vertically and apply the wax to the base with the front of the iron facing down. Drip the wax evenly across the entire base of the board, spacing the drips 1-2 inches apart from nose to tail and edge to edge. A good pattern is to drip along the edges first, then evenly across the center of the board.

Step 4
Once the wax has dripped evenly across the base, place your iron on the base and begin to spread the wax evenly across the base. Keep the iron moving and don't leave it in one place for too long. Use a back and forth motion to spread the wax all the way to the edges of the board, as these areas will dry the quickest. If certain areas need more wax, apply more in Step 3. Remember, less is more when it comes to the amount of wax you apply to the base. You want an even layer of wax across the entire base of the board, so using too much wax will result in more scraping.

Step 5
Once the base of the board is evenly waxed, turn off the iron and set it aside. Let the board cool for 10-20 minutes to allow the pores in the base to absorb the warm wax and maximize wax retention.

Step 6
Once the base has cooled, take your scraper and begin scraping the wax away, using long, even strokes, from nose to tail. It's important to apply even pressure with the scraper to avoid scratching the base. We recommend holding the scraper with both hands at a 30-45° angle to ensure safe and thorough wax removal. If you're new to waxing, we recommend using a plastic scraper rather than a metal-edged scraper.

Step 7
After scraping off the excess wax, feel the base to make sure it's smooth. Stand the board upright and look underneath the base to make sure there are no remaining waxes. It's also important to remove any wax remaining on the metal edges of the board. If there is still wax remaining, repeat step 6 to remove it completely.

Step 8
Once all the excess wax has been removed, it's time to polish the base. Using a green Scotch-Brite pad or horsehair brush, polish the base of your snowboard from nose to tail, applying firm pressure. This will remove the fine, dusty wax layer and leave a super smooth finish.

Step 9
Once your snowboard base is cleaned, waxed, and polished, it's time to clean up. Throw the wax shavings in the trash and make sure your workspace is free of old wax, which can easily soak into carpets and other surfaces and make cleaning difficult later.

Step 10
That's it! Grab your friends and have fun!
