WhiteGold stands as Hertel's premier product, boasting a rich history of accolades from prestigious events such as the Olympics, World Cup Nastar, Freestyle competitions, and a variety of snowboarding events. The application process is straightforward - simply rub it from edge to edge and then iron it, ensuring you make the most of your investment. We affectionately refer to this technique as "OneCoat." By choosing Hertel, you're equipping yourself with everything you need to excel on the slopes.

Currently, the ingredient responsible for delivering that turbo boost is priced at $61.00 per one-ounce bar.

Contrary to traditional methods of waxing, scraping, waxing, and brushing, OneCoat simplifies the process. Just apply one coat, iron, mash, scrape, give it a high buff, and you're ready to hit the slopes and have fun. 

In the last quarter of the 20th century, researchers addressed the twin problems of water and impurities adhering to skis during spring conditions. Terry Hertel addressed both problems, first with the novel use of a surfactant that interacted with the wax matrix in such a way as to repel water effectively, a product introduced in 1974 by Hertel Wax. Hertel also developed the first fluorocarbon product and the first spring-time wax that repels and makes the running surface slick for spring time alpine ski and snowboard. This technology was introduced to the market in 1986 by Hertel Wax.[5] In 1990, Hertel filed for a U.S. patent on a "ski wax for use with sintered-base snow skis", containing paraffin, a hardener wax, roughly 1% per-fluoroether diol, and 2% SDS surfactant.[6] Trademarks for Hertel waxes are Super HotSauce, Racing FC739, SpringSolution and White Gold.[5]
