Default wax?

"On Mars, the craters anchor the low pressure system that dominates the
southern polar ice cap, and keep it in one location," Colaprete said.


The low-pressure system results in white fluffy snow, which appears as a
very bright region over the ice cap. In contrast, the scientists also report
that 'black ice' forms in the eastern hemisphere, where martian skies are
relatively clear and warm.


"The eastern hemisphere of the south pole region gets very little snow, and
clear ice forms over the martian soil there," Colaprete said.

Are you talking "snow-snow" or dry ice (that's what they have there)?
Fluoro won't work on dry ice. Skiing also will be pretty noisy...
remember that sqeaking dry ice sound?
