i use white lithium lube, does not fling and you know where you put it on so you dont over lube it. it will attract a bit more dust than say a chain wax but that just makes me take care of my chain more.

maxima chain wax
Penetration is excellent it does make the chain look dirtier once the wax sets in

I use Kerosene on a rag to wipe the chain clean, then 90W gear lube on another rag and wipe along the inside of the chain. My chains last a long time. Been doing this for 15-20 years.

I have been using Maxima for a few years. I had a mechanic recommend it. I second shraz, that it puts the tan haze on the links, but when is the last time you really admired the cain on someone's bike??

I completely soak in WD40, wipe, soak in Bel Ray, wipe. Oh, I go down the road and back after the wd40 soak.
