Base Clean Ski & Snowboard Wax Remover - 16 oz

Before you apply Hertel’s 2026 reformulated waxes, start with a clean base. Base Clean is Hertel’s professional-grade ski and snowboard wax remover — the essential first step for getting the most out of any wax, especially the updated 2026 formulas with stronger pollen-repellent chemistry. Made in USA.

Why Base Cleaning Matters More Than Ever

With today’s wetter, pollen-heavier snow conditions, old wax residue and pollen buildup on your base can significantly reduce the performance of even the best wax. A clean base ensures Hertel’s updated 2026 pollen-repellent formulas bond properly and perform at their full potential.

Key Features

• 🧹 Professional-grade formula: Removes old wax, pollen residue, and base contaminants completely
• 🌿 Pairs perfectly with 2026 Hertel waxes: Clean base = maximum pollen-repellent performance
• 📦 16oz bottle: Multiple full base cleanings per bottle
• ✅ Safe for all sintered and extruded ski and snowboard bases
• 🇺🇸 Made in USA by Hertel Ski Wax

How to Use

Apply Base Clean to a clean cloth or paper towel and wipe from tip to tail. Allow to dry completely before applying wax. For best results, clean your base at the start of each season and whenever switching wax formulas.

Pro Tip

Always clean your base before applying SpringSolution™ or any of Hertel’s 2026 reformulated waxes. Pollen and old wax residue from previous sessions can interfere with the new pollen-repellent surfactant chemistry — a clean base maximizes the benefit of the updated formula.
