T179O Brush
Best steel brush for serious skiers prepping race-ready glide wax.
This steel brush is the heavy-duty workhorse you need for clearing glide wax from your base structure. It’s aggressive enough to handle the initial post-scrape pass with ease, though you’ll want to follow it up with a finer nylon brush to truly polish your finish.
