Summary of common uses (see individual products for more detail):
- edge tool sets angles for boards and skis
- diamond stone is used to maintain edges weekly
- wax is rated for all conditions
- wax scraper removes excess wax that slows skis
- metal scraper and ptex are to repair base gouges
- edge stone is for removal/repair of edge damage
- gummi stone is for edge rust removal, detuning, and burr removal
- file brush used to keep files free of metal waste from edge work
- brake retainer holds brake during edge tuning
- fluoro wax should be used over the hydro wax in a separate application for added speed
- brushes are essential to remove wax from base structure so water produced from friction can be channeled away
