I've usually done the normal drip routine on skis for the last say 20 something years, which of course is a bit messy, was waxing skis having a buddy over he asked me why I wasn't just rubbing it on crayon style, I thought the wax I used was way to hard, but playing around with the new ps8, and hs8 fluor free stuff, crayon method was super easy.
Someone wanna educate me on the downsides?The obvious would be if you had really dirty bases I guess, but apart from that, there surely has to be some significant downsides? I've done a few skis with crayon now for testing, and the lack of mess on floor, the wax saving is huuuuge, and very little mess left on skis sidewall, so little I dont have to mask the sidewalls ( I dont like wax leftovers)
I was searching around trying to figure it out, and found @Philpug 's "hotel room" way with fiberlene between iron and base as well.
