      What grit sandpaper was needed scuff the bottom? And it's just a scuff or do you need to takeoff some paint or clear?

    Looks awesome 👌. Wonder if application can be done in various colors to accommodate ski color schemes. 🤔

    • @ObiSkiTV
      @ObiSkiTV  11 месяцев назад +1

      Yes it can. From what I understand it has to be mixed and most places usually have to order it so it generally runs an extra $100.

    I've had it since 2021. It's a must for our nano FXs. It will also be alot easier to move the ski on your trailer bunks. It slides easier. No speed loss and no handling difference (especially if u have aftermarket sponsons)

    Best thing you can do to a painted Yamaha hull. I use gator glide, but superslick is basically the same type of product. Gator glide is a more complex application process and is more expensive, but is available in colors. Either way this is a must do. And doing a yearly touch up is fast and easy.

    What makes super slick better than coat it or other epoxy resins?

    • @ObiSkiTV
      @ObiSkiTV  10 месяцев назад +1

      From a lot of feedback I have seen, Super slick being an epoxy based coating vs water based holds better and lasts longer and another reason is the teflon it has in its mixture as well really holds up.

      I’m not able to give you a scientific answer, but I will say most use super slick and from research it seems to hold up really well.
