When you are finished skiing on a pair of skis you have to thoroughly clean the glide zone since the spring snow is very dirty. Clean them before you put summer wax on them , so the wax gets in the base and not the dirt.
It is best to invest in a glide zone cleaner so you do not strip out wax from the base, but you can use regular base cleaner if you don't have anything else. If you use base cleaner then you need to put several layers of summer wax on your skis.
