sticky application, decently smooth glide

I also found this wax hard to scrape. It has an odd stickiness to it when scraping it off that had me worried about its performance. To my surprise I felt the glide was pretty good. So I'll give it a 3 star adequate for the job rating as it works but you'll want to make sure you're working with a good/sharp scraper and will probably still need some extra elbow grease. There are certainly easier-to-scrape waxes out there!

Honestly, the only reason I bought this wax is because I needed a few more dollars in my shopping cart to make the $50 free shipping order. Hah. It melts nicely, has a decent glide.. not even close to the Swix formula, but we're talking low end wax here. It also scrapes off terribly as others have expressed.At this price point, you get what you pay for. Don't pay much, Don't get much.
