🔧 Key Features

• Powder-based glide coating for moist and coarse snow.

• Especially suitable for snow moisture levels of 30–100% (wet or heavy snow).

• Temperature range for conditions: approx. –2 … +10 °C.

• Technology: Swix Nano Contact — creates a nanostructured, water-repellent surface that minimizes friction and maximises glide.

🛠️ Instructions & Recommendations

Application and waxing

• Sprinkle PC100 powder evenly across the glide zones of the ski.

• Melt the powder into the base using a waxing iron: minimum temperature 160 °C.

• Move the iron slowly — about 8–10 seconds per ski. This ensures an even and durable surface.

• Allow to cool and finish by brushing (e.g., nylon or wool brush) to achieve a smooth, fast surface.

✅ Why choose PC100

When the snow is wet or moist and contains a lot of water, PC100 provides a water-repellent, nano-structured surface that significantly reduces friction and improves glide.

An excellent choice for races and marathons where conditions are challenging and maximum speed and glide are required.

Works especially well with high-quality base waxes — the powder finalises base preparations and elevates the ski’s glide characteristics to the next level.

Highly versatile for late-spring/early-summer snow, transformed snow, and packed snow after rain.
