Make sure you have the right temp ranges.  Right now in colorado you should use blue and purple mixed togather.  A lot of snow has been pretty sticky in Colorado for a week or so.  I was at breck last week and it was sticky.

True to a dagree.  They have two types of waxes.  Microcrystalline Wax  and All Natural Wax. Purl Wax's unique all natural wax blends are made with ingredients from natural and renewable resources. 100% biodegradable and non toxic


The Purl Wax development team has introduced a new Silicone Microcrystalline blend that combines the durability of microcrystalline with the lubricity of Silicone. Contrary to the mechanical weakness of fluorocarbon waxes, Silicone - Carbon bonds are particularly stable. The stability of this bond allows Purl Wax to glide well in a broad range of temperature and humidity variations. The Purl Silicone Microcrystalline blend offers superior performance and increased longevity at a fraction of the cost of fluorinated ski and snowboard waxes. If you are more concerned with the toxic nature of fluoro waxes and would prefer to get your performance from a healthier source, please check outPurl All Natural Wax Our All natural Waxes are from natural and renewable resources which are 100% biodegradable and non toxic.

He did the right thing and search barred (I'm assuming) so he could ask a question in a relevant thread rather than creating a new thread
