Question about wax color

ak01 · 22-02-10, 12:56 AM

I have some old bars of ski wax with the label "Hertel" embedded. I have 3 different colored bars: pink, yellow, and light blue. My question is: Does anybody know how to translate these colors into target snow temperatures.. in other words, which color wax should I use for which snow conditions/temps?

Hertel web site does not provide any insight.. probably since they don't seem to make this kind of wax anymore.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Andy

Swix wax has waxes the same color you're describing. Their website has the snow temp info for all their waxes. I don't know if this helps but it could be a starting place.
