Sticky Bumps Surfboard Base Coat
Beschreibung
Sticky Bumps Surfboard Base Coat is the wax you put on first when you want a better foundation under your normal topcoat. It is a simple product, but a very useful one. By creating the initial wax build on the board, it helps your session wax sit better, last longer and feel more consistent.
If you are waxing a fresh board, re-doing an old deck, or you simply want your topcoat to build faster and hold up better, basecoat is the right starting point. It is suitable for all temperatures because it is not your final traction layer. Its job is to create the base that your temperature-specific wax can grip to.
Where it sits in the range
This is not a replacement for your normal session wax. It sits underneath it. Use basecoat first, then add the temperature-specific wax that matches the conditions. If you are surfing in warmer water, pair it with Sticky Bumps Original Wax Warm. You can also browse the full surf wax collection.
