So I tried my first chain waxing today. Last week I picked up a small crock pot at Goodwill for $2.50, bought two pounds of wax and some teflon from Amazon. I used one pound in the crock pot and "eyeballed" the teflon at about 15-ish grams.
I actually did three chains today but the first one I did went on my Shiv and I put in a 34 mile ride. Can't say I really noticed a difference, but I wasn't expecting to notice a difference either. The main reason I am giving this a shot is because I live in a dry, dusty, sandy climate and chain maintenance thus far always results in cleaning a lot of oily, gritty gunk off the chain. My main objective is just a clean drivetrain with some extended chain life.
We shall see.
