Our eco-responsible advice:
- Remember to throw away the used wax, and opt for an eco-friendly wax next time. The planet thanks you! 🌍
- Be careful, if your board is made of foam, go easy on the comb so as not to damage it.
⚠️ Absolutely avoid the sun-burning board, it's the best way to ruin it! ☀️🙅♂️ Prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause your board to delaminate, especially if it's made of foam.
Be careful with heat tools on foam boards! ❌🔥
Do not use a heat gun or hair dryer on a foam board, as this may damage the coating. Instead, use a special foam product and a soft cloth.
