I'm not convinced. That review is presumably the guy using JUST the liquid stuff, whereas pragmatically most real-life use will be with the liquid stuff as a base layer with a light normal chalking on top. It should actually reduce the amount of chalk on the rock.

But there's no regulation or publication of the amount of resin being used in different products. There's been no rigorous testing. And chalk use may change. I've certainly seen a couple of people chalking exclusively with liquid chalk. If his test is accurate, then even just one of these people working a problem could affect the rock negatively.You don't need to use pof in liquid chalk. We know it causes problems. Why is it being used? I certainly won't be buying any unless I'm clear its pof-free.
Friction labs claim to be better because they're 100% Mag Carb, but Moon Dust makes the same claim, so why pay more for Friction labs?
All you people saving it for those redpoints are mental - you do know you can just have another go don't you?!?!
I did only have a couple of dips though...
