Ski Brush Holmenkol OvalBrush Steel MicroFinish – Professional Hand Steel Brush for Maximum Base Performance
A high-quality ski brush is the foundation for a fast ski. The Holmenkol OvalBrush Steel MicroFinish was specifically developed to finely clean and open the base structure before waxing. The fine steel bristles remove oxidation, fine dirt particles, and wax residue from the structure, allowing new ski wax to be optimally absorbed.
From our experience in race training and World Cup ski service, a hand steel micro-brush is one of the most important tools in cold snow conditions. Anyone who wants to wax their skis and get the maximum performance out of high-quality race waxes always starts with a perfectly prepared base structure.

Why We Recommend the Holmenkol OvalBrush Steel MicroFinish
In professional ski service, a high-quality wax application begins with a clean and open base structure. This is exactly what the Holmenkol OvalBrush Steel MicroFinish was developed for.
The fine steel bristles work significantly more precisely than coarse metal brushes and remove even the smallest residues from the structure channels. This allows high-quality Holmenkol ski wax to penetrate deeper and act longer in the base.
Our experience from race service:
- Opens the base structure particularly evenly.
- Removes the finest wax residues and oxidations.
- Improves the absorption of new wax layers.
- Ideal for cold snow conditions and hard race waxes.
- Perfect preparation before any high-quality wax application.
Especially for race skis that are regularly ground and waxed, this preparation ensures significantly more consistent performance.
