Board Cleaning

Postby globesurfer » Tue Apr 05, 2005 6:41 am

How many of you have given your board a good makeover

When Is aw makeover i dont juyst mean scraping the wax off, but cleaning it to perfection.

I scraped the wax off then used the Mr. Sheen to shine it up, and I'd never seen my board new because I got it second habnd,.. and it had wax on it.. but the board looked really new, adn was so smooth

whos done sumthing like that?

Get the wax off with a comb
Then gently rub with a washing scourer thingy and a tiny little bit of methylated spirits.
Looks like new again! :D

A particularly nice way to do it is sitting outside a camper van on a warm evening with a wax comb in one hand and a beer in the other 8)
