Product Description

Black or Clear Drip Repair Candles.
For temporary repair of ski or snowboard base gouges at home or on the road
Simply light one end of these sticks with a lighter, then drip..rather than iron...the molten p-tex into gouges.
WARNING!!! They burn extra-hot (in excess of 970°F) which helps consume some of the undesirable black carbon created while the candle burns.
Please use them carefully because dripping p-tex is hot enough to severely burn skin.
Hold a steel scraper under candle when not actually dripping molten p-tex into gouges.
Sticks measure 8" x 3/8" (200 x 9mm).
Price is for one stick.
Purchase multiples of 10 (in one color) and save 10 cents per stick.

How to Use P-Tex Drip Candles

Light stick on fire, allow the flame to get strong.
Hold the stick like you would a pencil.
Hold at a 45° angle about 1" above the gouge (you want a blue flame, not yellow, adjust height to achieve this).
Drip molten P-Tex into gouge working toward yourself, as if you are drawing a line.
When the gouge is filled allow it to cool (10 minutes is good).
Scrape with a sharp metal scraper and you're done!

Easy to use and control

Posted by Midwest skier..BB on 15th May 2013

Best drip candles I have used in 35+ years. Hard to find on the Internet but Tognar made it easy to order and arrived in a timely manner. They have fine assortment of ski products sold by skiers for skiers.
worked great

Hate dripping p-tex candles, but they are only thing that works for me, despite my healthy addition of carbon.
Works as a p-tex candle should

Posted by Rusty G. on 14th Mar 2013

Works very well for light to medium deep gouges. They're made like a straw and seems to burn a little better for sure.
good stuff

Lights up better (quicker) than other ptex, sticks better and holds longer, all of this - by a significant margin. I've always used a sharp knife to cut off extra material, which isn't pretty but no problems w/ cutting off extra without pulling the patch out w/ a metal scraper.
Doesn't keep lit

Posted by Grant on 21st Feb 2013

These started out ok, but then wouldn't hold the flame. The material is more sticky and appears to hold better but also doesn't come off as easy with a metal scraper so you might need to buy a sur form scraper as well.
Melts even

Melts even and is easy to scrape to an even surface.
Less carbon more ptex

Posted by Paul on 31st Dec 2012

With the hole in the center, the ptex burns hotter keeping a bluer flame which means less carbon on every drip.
Good Price and effective

Cheap and effective

These candles are easy to maintain a blue flame. I have used other candles and these are much easier to use.
Good Price and effective

These candles are easy to use and its easy to keep a blue flame. Other candles i have used are harder to keep a blue flame but these work great.
