Different types of waxes will iron in best at different temperatures. Generally colder waxes require more heat. A good iron/wax will include a chart of temperature ranges. Of course, a Swix iron will only tell you what temps to use with Swix waxes..so if you're using another brand of wax you'll need to get the specs on it. Basically, it varies..so make sure whatever wax you get includes some guidelines
