$22?! It's $9 at the Walmart near me... It's what I use too. Only problem is you get a lot of white powder showing up if you don't clean and vacuum well after.

Quoted from snakesnsparklers:

This means you are using too much wax. I don't get any white powder or excessive residue with this product.

I've never been the best waxer (nowhere I can find that actually goes over waxing technique, even the video tutorials from the manufacturers just go "on put it on and wait for it to have a bit") but I don't really know how I could get it on much thinner...

I've used the same technique with P21s and Blitz and not had the dust, but I was never satisfied with the results. Maybe they're just thinner

Quoted from Laithan:

I also do not see any dust at all. I was always told that to "wax" one must use small circular motions while firmly (but not hard) pressing. I guess it's the universal instructions that are known but not written anywhere except in the Karate Kid movie from the 80's (anyone remember any pins in those huts?!?).
There could be a Mythbusters episode showing how straight lines are better for all I know (lol) but I'm pretty sure small firm circles with a very light coating is the way to go. 3 light coatings are always better than one heavy coat.
Wax on, Wax off
This could also be the secret technique.. Shh!

See, everyone says things like 'small, firm circles' but they never tell me how many inches a small circle is. They say, get some wax on the pad, but never tell me how much that is. I understand some of that is hard to convey, but...
