Abstract
A wax applicator laminate for transfering wax compounds to a surface, the wax applicator laminate comprising a carrier sheet being substantially impervious to the passage of melted wax therethrough and being less adherent to solidified wax on a first surface thereof, and a layer comprising solidified wax which is adhered to the second surface of the carrier sheet. In the method of applying a coating of wax to a surface, the carrier sheet is heated to melt the solidified wax compound and to deposit a coating of wax on the surface.
Claims9
A heat actuated wax applicator laminate for applying a thin, generally uniform coating of wax on a surface such as the bottom of a ski or the like by contacting the laminate with a heated surface, comprising:
- a sheet of porous and absorptive cellulose material having a first side and a second side;
- a layer comprising solidified wax, a portion of said solidified wax layer being absorbed by said porous and absorptive material to bind said solidified wax layer to said second side of said porous and absorptive cellulose material;
- and
- a substantially continuous nonadherent barrier coating comprising resin bonded to said first side for being contacted with said heated surface, said nonadherent barrier coating being nonadhering to said heated surface and not becoming tacky at temperatures sufficient to melt said solidified wax and being impermeable to melted wax to substantially prevent melted wax from seeping therethrough to contact said heated surface.
