RACEWAXdotCOM Posted March 28, 2006 Report Posted March 28, 2006 Hi all! I plan to create a racewax.com discount site for forum members. It may not be up until the Fall, but if you need something now, and I can shave a bit off your purchase, just mention the forum when you buy and I will do what I can in the form of a PayPal refund.

I'm def. shopping there next year. I spend a lot of money on wax, so now that i get a discount- it's heaven! Do you sell anything other than wax? Quote
RACEWAXdotCOM Posted March 28, 2006 Author Report Posted March 28, 2006 (edited) Do you sell anything other than wax? I sell pretty much everything, and if you don't see it, ask. I buy from Wintersteiger, SVST & FK-Tools (SKS) and can special order anything. Write for a quote on anything they sell that I don't carry; I can usually get you a good price. Oh, and I should point out, the waxes are all my formulations. I am a chemist by profession. Edited March 28, 2006 by RACEWAXdotCOM Quote
Ski Posted March 28, 2006 Report Posted March 28, 2006 I bought mill files, brushes, and a scraper a while back. And I got a small sample of the Fluoromax Cold, which seemed equivalent to Swix LF6 that I usually use. I can't believe the money I wasted on Cera F...$40 for 8 grams... So far, everything I've tried has been as good or better than Swix or Toko products. Hope you don't mind if we end up picking your brain a bit, Dr. D... Quote

I need all new stuff, especially a more precise sharpening tool (using a crappy swix tuner)...my brass brush is dead, I'll definatly buy from you, support a PA'er, and I believe I've used some of your flouro from Ski999, and the skis were almost too slippery, if there is such a thing Quote

Sometimes I wax my skis to test a product and I can't ski a tight line because they are too fast (I'm not a racer you may have just figured out). I'll drop a note when the site is up. I am adding new products and I need to get everything settled first before I create the second site. Quote
VTmark Posted March 28, 2006 Report Posted March 28, 2006 the bennfits from being on this site just get better and better! ! Quote
skidude Posted March 29, 2006 Report Posted March 29, 2006 Gonna pin this topic. Anyone who wants to save PASR members a few bucks must be a good guy Thanks DrD! Quote
skimom Posted March 29, 2006 Report Posted March 29, 2006 We need new brushes too. Also, good portable shaker containers for fluoro powder. Hey, Dr D, how about making a minibrush (small enough to fit in a pocket), good for overlays that require brushing? If you are a chemist, why not patent something that rips on new, dry (squeeky) snow. Also, an overlay that lasts for several runs. The list could go on and on... Quote

If you are a chemist, why not patent something that rips on new, dry (squeeky) snow. Also, an overlay that lasts for several runs. The list could go on and on... I looked at mini brushes but they would cost basically the same as regular brushes. Would you pay the same for a smaller brush? My microfiber waxes over a moly wax base has taken trophies on dry snow. The microfibers are very durable as well. They are popular with Nordic skiers who say the skis are still fast after 42 km.

Papasteeze Posted March 29, 2006 Report Posted March 29, 2006 Also, an overlay that lasts for several runs. Holemkol nanospeed spray seems to really stay put. It's ubber expensive though.. Click here to read my feedback. I scanned your testamonials, my first impression is that they are all from proud parents whose kids are winning?? Quote
RACEWAXdotCOM Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Posted March 29, 2006 Cool...PayPal is the bomb...and you can usually avoid sales tax..Tomorrow I'm going to check out the site because I've been ignorant to waxing for warm weather conditions.. I can't cut you a break on taxes sorry. I am a registered business in PA. Since you are all local though, I can spin a discount here or there and refund postage to help compensate. Quote
skimom Posted March 29, 2006 Report Posted March 29, 2006 I looked at mini brushes but they would cost basically the same as regular brushes. Would you pay the same for a smaller brush? If it worked well I would. Optimally, one would carry fluoro powder, cork, cloth, an alternate overlay or two and a brush. That's in addition to the usual chapstick, hand warmers, misc drugs for aches and pains, money/IDs/insurance cards, rain wipers, comb, ski lock, keys, food, etc. I've had shoulder pain from lugging around too much stuff, and it gives me the physique of Santa Claus.

All my brushes are high quality. They are either from Sun Valley Ski & Tool (mostly), Wintersteiger (a few), or FK-Tools (one). Next time I order from SVST, I will buy a couple and I'll post a note here. They are 2" x 4". The horsehair would sell for about $12.00. The other is a brass with a horsehair border. Thanks! Quote
Ski Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 Miniature is good, Dr. D. I end up using a champagne cork and a brush I cut in half for NASTAR days, since I don't take them back to my Jeep after a few race runs. I love the film cannister shakers you have for fluoro and use one for ASRA race days, but I take one of the less-easy-to-use tiny ziplocks for NASTAR, since I freeski afterward and hate any bulk. And, Doug, you can get by the whole state tax thing if you make your rap label a non-profit...you just have to be creative, like I am with all of my other dozen or so dependants on this MB. Quote
RACEWAXdotCOM Posted September 9, 2006 Author Report Posted September 9, 2006 I had a crazy summer. Early on I entered an eBay / Entrepreneur Magazine contest, and WON! It was a business boost contest that gave me a free website and consulting on other business aspects. Part of it was a new logo (see my new avatar). I am close to finishing my new website; it will include many new products. It should be up in a week or two. Funny story... I will be in the November issue of the Mag and they sent out a New York City photographer to take pictures (we did them at Ski Liberty). Anyway, I said, "you must meet some big people in your job" and he replied, "I shot Donald Trump yesteday". So Trump then me... its OK to be number two sometimes According to the administrators, I should be able to generate discount codes that you will be able to use at checkout. More later... Quote
skidude Posted September 9, 2006 Report Posted September 9, 2006 Fast waxes and discounts are always good Thanks! Quote
skidude Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 (edited) I bet Trump can't carve a turn, or launch off a kicker Edited September 10, 2006 by skidude Quote
Ski Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 I never race without your stuff and I'm a picky m*therf*cker! (Feel free to use that as an endorsement ) Congrats, Dr. D! Your waxes are truly fantastic. Quote
ThinkSnow Posted September 11, 2006 Report Posted September 11, 2006 Man, grats on your success Dr. D! Glad to hear of your great summer. Quote
Dan- Posted September 11, 2006 Report Posted September 11, 2006 I'll probably be purchasing some snowboard vises.. They would make things so much easier Quote

Dan- Posted September 11, 2006 Report Posted September 11, 2006 There all pretty much the same thing. Quote
