You are saying it is much simpler in practice?
Loads simpler. You just need to make sure all the factory or oil based lube is gone, then apply this stuff. Reapply every 300 miles give or take, if you get caught in the rain, just check it to make sure if you need to reapply. Can't be any easier that. No crock pot needed. The initial cleaning was the most effort, took a few trips through the de greaser and a little scrubbing, but once I got through that, and you apply squirt, when I need to reapply, I can just wipe it down with a rag and reapply. No muss no fuss. After you do the initial cleaning a trip through some denatured alcohol is a good thing as well. Dries off very quickly.
