Holmenkol produce a range of coatings specially designed to reduce friction, limit water absorbtion and improve uv protection. We have used the Seal and Glide on our kites for the last season and found impressive improvments in handling. Recently we recoated an old kite and it once again behaved like new removing the tendency for the kite to stick to the jib and slipped in and out of the kite sock with ease. Similarly the Lube and Speed works a treat on all moving parts and seems to last longer  and work, as well if not better, than products we have previously used for coating the parts of the kite system. These are deffinately our favourite products and form an essential part of our maintenance kit. Holmenkol LubenSpeed LubenSpeed is a nano technology coating combining the benefits of wet and dry lubricant systems. It offers an extreme penetrating lubricant for all moving parts, with a self cleaning water repellent finish. It is ideal for use on tracks, deck hardware, masts and rigging. Holmenkol CareFleece CareFleece is a critical part of the Holmenkol surface preparation process. To ensure the highest quality results use CareFleece when applying Holmenkol products. Holmenkol SealnGlide System SealnGlide is the ultimate performance finish, based on "nano" technology, for significantly reducing the friction of sail surfaces, resulting in tangible benefits such as: Faster sail setting - thanks to reduced friction Prevents sail snagging on rigs or fittings Increases cloth stability Use on bolt ropes for easy hoists Increases the sailcloth tear strength Resistant to sail washing detergents Reduced weight aloft - due to lower water absorption Non stick tell-tales - giving a clear advantage in competition Used mainly on mainsails, headsails and spinnakers, this unique system offers "nano" technology creating a slippery, water and dirt repellent surface glaze which also gives fungicidal and UV protection. Holmenkol SportPolish long term protection from weathering... SportPolish is the state of the art "nano" technology cleaner and sealer, and the surface preparation for the Lubenspeed.
