My current problem surface very easy to scratch up similar to car paint. Also if poked with ski poles that spot start chipping/dent in topcoat. Not to mention damage from edges when skis hit each other or one ski across the top of another make nasty looking scratch/cut
how well it withstand impact?

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

It does good but still chips if it's thick. You want a thin coat. Nothing will take the abuse that nylon or PBT will in regards to chipping or denting in the top coat.. It's just the nature of the material.MadRussian wrote:My current problem surface very easy to scratch up similar to car paint. Also if poked with ski poles that spot start chipping/dent in topcoat.

I understand that. Currently I'm not ready to go with nylon top sheet. Trying to find better topcoat compared to what I got.amidnightproject wrote:

IMO you can't really go wrong with CLR. It's a great product.MadRussian wrote:I understand that. Currently I'm not ready to go with nylon top sheet. Trying to find better topcoat compared to what I got.amidnightproject wrote:

How about SLR with very thin fiberglass something like 2 or 3 ounces. Fiberglass reinforcement will make top surface extremely durable and will minimize chipping. I understand it's extra step in the process but might be good alternative to nylon also in this approach any damage much easier to repair
