Lundmark Powdered Dance Floor & Shuffleboard Wax, 1-Pound, Clear 3224P001

We dance tango in our town hall which has a beautiful wood floor. Other groups also use the room and, despite our signs and notes, some can't seem to resist using a pine based cleaner in the water when they mop. This has led to a very sticky and inconsistent floor. Finally someone told us about dance floor wax and we tried it last night. I think I can say "problem solved!" The instructions say to sprinkle it on the floor and sweep it around to spread it, but the reviews I read said sprinkle a little on the floor in a corner to rub your shoes in. We did this, and it worked well. The reviews also said not to use too much, and it's definitely true! One guy in our group described it as trying to dance on ball bearings. Since tango follows a line of dance around the perimeter of the floor, the part of the floor just past where we had the wax pile became less sticky after a while. I eventually moved the can to the opposite corner, where the floor hadn't benefited from the wax wearing off our shoes. When we were done dancing, the residual wax pile was easily cleaned up with a dry mop.

This wax works well. It seemed a bit different than other dance wax I used before, it appears similar to fine cornmeal in texture and color but works just fine. I purchased this because it was cheaper than some of the other waxes. You only need a small amount (really only a small amount, it can get slippery). I dance country style (couples and line dancing) and need to be able to slide and scoot a bit on the floor. The places I go, the floors can be sticky from people spilling their drinks etc. I take a small amount in a container to sprinkle on the floor near me, then I just rub the toes of my boots in it. Because the wax is a tannish color, it is not as noticeable as other waxes or powder would be.

I buy this wax for myself and as gifts for dance buddies. Just a little on the sole of your shoes makes ballroom dancing so much smoother. I bring a small amount of wax to every dance in a 3" pill pouch, sprinkle on floor under our table (avoid server paths & general areas as it makes floor very slippery) & load up every few dances. Use only on the front of your shoe, so your heel remains effective as a "brake". I dance two evenings a week & one container lasts a year or more, even with sharing.

The produce arrived a day before expected. We’ve used dance wax for years but never this brand. This wax was much more “slippery” than preciously purchased dance wax. It was used on a linoleum dance floor and we should have used about one-third of the amount we put down. Initially, couples slipped when dancing but after the dance wax became evenly distributed, it was great. It lasted the entire time of the dance and did not need reapplication. Women liked the fact that it did NOT leave a powdery residue on their boots. Next time, I’ll block most of the holes on the sprinkler distribution area before applying the wax. This should make it very economical to use. Yes, I’d purchase again

We dance 6 months a year in an old, large ballroom with a wonderful wood dance floor, and 6 months a year on a small wood dance floor at a country club with a band. One week, the latter's floor had been cleaned with something which left it sticky. Everyone's shoes stuck to the floor, wouldn't slide. I ordered this wax powder and it solved the problem. We didn't ask management, we just sprinkled it on the floor and danced.

We put in new vinyl flooring and were looking for ANYTHING that would help to get our chairs to slide. Teflon sliders, felt sliders, magic sliders, self-leveling sliders, soap, candle wax - nothing worked. Thought this might do it, since the label warns not to put it in traffic areas, and that it should be used sparingly. This didn't work either. I think it has corn meal in it, or something like that, which just causes a scratching sound rather than a smooth slide. So, scratch that from the list of ideas. Back to square one...

Used it tonight for dance on hard tile floor that is usually damp and sticky. Sprinkled a little on the floor in the corner of the room and swished shoes through it. Worked great. No more stress on knees from trying to twist legs on a sticky floor. Have not tried it on Shuffleboard yet but probably would do fine.

The wax comes in a container about the size of a cleanser can. It has a nice pour or sprinkle top. I poured some into empty plastic spice bottles with a sprinkle top and took it with me to a couple of local dance clubs. When I rubbed my dance shoes in a little wax I had sprinkled in the corner it provided the right amount of slickness to a dirty dance floor so we were dancing an turning without hurting an ankle. This particular brand has a light tan color rather than the white I've seen on other brands. it works fine and almost looks like a spice in a bottle.
