Checking up scheme cream again (since i'm too bored with report writing) and i came across this.
The Thorough Guide to Hairstyling: Part 4.5: Product Reviews Continued, Plus Bad Products You Should Avoid : malehairadvice
for the guy that asked about wet or dry quicksand application
"I prefer to use this stuff on dry hair on its own, in the same way as the HdF Hybridized Wax, or on wet hair in a cocktail with Quicksand (usually 2 parts Sponge Wax to 1 part Quicksand). The wax distributes very easily throughout the hair, so I can style in a few seconds flat and get a very nice look. Super easy to use, so this is a good beginning hair product." - excerpt from the spongewax review
EDIT: from the quicksand part of the review-
If I want a lot of thickness, I apply it to my hair when it’s damp then blow-dry. If I want more in the way of lift and volume, I apply it to dry hair. This stuff also cocktails amazingly, and the cocktail of this + AC Pomade is possibly my favorite thing for my hair. Definitely worth a try, and you can adjust the ratio of Quicksand to Pomade depending on how much shine you want. Also cocktails quite well with Hanz de Fuko Sponge Wax. As a side note, my girlfriend also loves using this for shagging out her hair, so if you’re interested in that, this is a good choice.
