OVERVIEW
PHANTOM Cure Station™ and PHANTOM Glide™ are designed to work together in a shop environment to provide
consistent and rapid UV cure for skis and snowboards. The formula has been specically designed and tested with
the temperature and UV concentration and combinations of wavelengths created by this equipment. No processes
other than using the cure station as described, or following the instructions for natural outdoor strong sunlight cure,
should be attempted.
Please read the PHANTOM Glide™bulk application instructions and warnings before beginning.
Minimum recommended shop temperature is 58°F/15°C for a reasonable 15-30 minute cure station preheat. Longer
preheat may be required at lower starting ambient temperatures.

Caution:
•Two Person Lift Required. PHANTOM Cure Station™is a long, heavy object.
• Hot Surface. Do not touch the internal heating unit during or after operation.
• Disconnect PHANTOM Cure Station™from power source when servicing.
Cleaning Information
Over time moisture or evaporative residue may build up inside of the station. Wear appropriate gloves and wipe down
rst with a damp absorbent cloth or paper and then give a nal wipe down with a dry absorbent cloth or paper.
IMPORTANT Power Cable Information
Please, ensure that your PHANTOM Cure Station™is electrically rated to operate with the AC power available in your
location. North America voltage: 110 VAC. Europe and Japan voltage: 220 VAC.
• Only use the power cable that was provided with your PHANTOM Cure Station™.
• Do not plug the equipment power cable into an electrical outlet if the power cable is damaged.
• To prevent electric shock, plug the equipment power cable into properly grounded electrical outlets. If the equip-
ment is provided with a 3-prong power cable, do not use adapter plugs that bypass the grounding feature, or remove
the grounding feature from the plug or adapter.
• Connect the power cable to a grounded electrical outlet only.
• If you use an extension power cable, ensure that the total ampere rating of the products plugged in to the extension
power cable does not exceed the ampere rating of the extension cable.
• If you must use an extension cable or power strip, ensure the extension cable or power strip is connected to a wall
power outlet and not to another extension cable or power strip. The extension cable or power strip must be designed
for grounded plugs and plugged into a grounded wall outlet.
• If you are using a multiple-outlet power strip, use caution when plugging the power cable into the power strip.
Some power strips may allow you to insert a plug incorrectly. Incorrect insertion of the power plug could result in
permanent damage to your equipment, as well as risk of electric shock and/or re. Ensure that the ground prong of
the power plug is inserted into the mating ground contact of the power strip.
• Be sure to grasp the plug, not the cable, when disconnecting equipment from an electric socket.

HOW TO APPLY PHANTOM GLIDE™
*
*
*
STEP 1
New Skis
Thoroughly clean the factory wax from the base using an industry
approved citrus base cleaner. Do not use unapproved solvent
based cleaners.
Allow the base to dry completely and wipe with a clean paper
towel to remove any remaining residue or dust.
Clean the base either by a fresh stone-grind or a thorough
base cleaning.
Used Skis
Thoroughly clean any wax from the base using an industry
approved citrus base cleaner. Do not use unapproved solvent
based cleaners.
Allow the base to dry completely and wipe with a clean paper
towel to remove any remaining residue or dust.
Repair any base damage with P-tex or base welds where
necessary.
A stone grind is the most efcient way to restore structure or to
remove abrasion, oxidation and/or damage due to use, and is
critical to ensure good PHANTOM Glide™performance.
If the bases are in good shape use a citrus base cleaner (solvent-
based cleaners are not recommended.
If a stone grind is not possible, and the base is particularly
abraded, oxidised or dirty; brush it out with a stiff roto or hand
brush and then repeat the base cleaning process.
IMPORTANT: PHANTOM Glide™should be at ambient room temperature (65°F - 85°F / 18°C - 30°C).
With the lid closed, thoroughly shake the bulk bottle container before each use. Meter out the correct amount of PHANTOM
Glide™per the size chart by administering the recommended number of sprays. For nearly all bases, this is between 2 and
4 full sprays. Applying light pressure with non-absorbent pad, spread evenly between the contact points, working from the
center of the base out to the edges (to minimize mess and clean-up later). Spread PHANTOM Glide™out to tips and tails,
trying to minimise run off. Wipe off any excess PHANTOM Glide™that spills over onto the top sheet. Continue to work
PHANTOM Glide™into the base until the surface has an even, thin polished sheen along the entire length of the running
surface. Make sure to close the spray nozzle after each use.
Prepare Equipment Surface
Apply PHANTOM Glide™Formula
STEP 2
NOTE: These instructions are only applicable to PHANTOM Glide™, a spray-on product released in Winter of 2021/2022.
PHANTOM 2.0 from 2018 is a two-part process requiring a Part A cure and a Part B cure.
PHANTOM CSF from 2019 is offered in bulk bottles for shops and demo needs and is a one-part process with a single cure.
Instructions for both PHANTOM 2.0 and PHANTOM CSF have key differences, and can be found at:
CSF: https://csf.phantomglide.com
DIY: https://diy.phantomglide.com

EN
Once the surfaces have been prepared as described in Step 2, the equipment is ready to go directly into the cure station.
Ensure the bases have an even, thin polished sheen, with no excess PHANTOM Glide™anywhere along the running surface.
NOTE: Bases should be treated at a minimum shop temperature of 58°F/15°C. For optimum results bases should be at 75 -
100 F prior to applying PHANTOM Glide™.
NOTE: PHANTOM Glide™no longer produces a white residue or matte nish. A glossy residue may exist but it should not be
wet or pooled on the base. Once polished, the base will have a high performance sheen. Properly cured PHANTOM Glide™
is essential to long-term performance and you should be sure this step is completed prior to moving onto step 5.
STEP 3
With any binding brakes securely strapped at, or snowboard bindings off, insert into the cure station on the supplied stands
with tips facing the heater (to improve cure efciency) and close the door. Minimize time the door is open to retain internal
Cure Station heat.
A. UV lights will NOT come on unless the door is closed and the limit switch in the upper left corner
is activated.
B. If the internal temperature is below a threshold the cure station may go through a pre-heat period
before the timer begins the countdown.
Once the cure cycle is done, remove the equipment from the cure station and allow it to return to room temperature. The
base should be dry with a nice polished appearance. If any signicant wetness exists, wipe off with a paper towel and
continue curing for another 5-10 minutes. A small amount of residue is OK. Once the base is properly cured, you can move
onto the nishing process described below in Step 5.
STEP 4
IMPORTANT: It is important to use the recommended volume
of PHANTOM Glide™during the application process to ensure
efcient curing and peak performance.
Put Equipment into Cure Station
Run Cure Station Cycle

EN
Wear appropriate eyewear and mask anytime you are brushing winter sports equipment. Using a nylon roto brush, or hand
brush, brush the base(s) from tip to tail. A single pass with the brush is generally sufcient. At this point, the surface will
have a polished sheen and is ready for use!
NOTE: Any tools used to further polish the base (i.e. horsehair or felt brushes) may be used at this point but are not
necessary. Take care to move the brush quickly along the bases in order to not cause friction burn.
STEP 4 STEP 5Brush Skis
A PHANTOM Glide™treated base will continue to have consistent and fast glide as long as the base is kept in good
condition. In practice, this means that some maintenance is required at regular intervals.
When the bases begin to look dry/white, this is a sign that abrasion has formed micro-hairs on the base. Regular dry
polishing using the PHANTOM GlideTM polishing pad and intermittent polishing with water will help keep bases clean
and maintain glide performance. For hard to remove adhesives and residue such as skin glue, use a citrus base cleaner or
rubbing alcohol.
Dirt and grease may also need to be cleaned off periodically. In this case, use a citrus base cleaner, and follow up with
polishing. After using any solvents on the gliding surface, always make sure bases are completely dry before thoroughly
polishing.
If the structure of the bases becomes damaged or severely abraded, a base grind is recommended. A base grind should
always be followed by polishing.
Inspect the remaining equipment surfaces for PHANTOM Glide™residue. Wipe off the edges, sidewalls and topsheet.
Visually inspect to make sure that everything looks clean.
Place PHANTOM Glide™sticker on each ski or snowboard topsheet.
