I bought some new lube for my chain yesterday and I got a big diatribe from the shop on Wax vs. Lube. I normally use my buddies and he has wax. I went in and asked for was but left with lube. What do you all use?

 

Mmmmmmm...... bacon.

 

ahhahha...i use wax...belray...goes on clear...dries white so i know where it is...very little fling...

 

i use lube.....is there a difference using wax??? would you wax less than lube??

all i know is that with the lube...i do it religiously......

 

rumor has it that wax is a whole lot cleaner, but thats a rumor

WD-40 spray after every wash

 

I hope you lube your chain after you use that WD-40 because it's not really a lube...it's a cleaner...

I use Honda spray lube...

 

My brother uses wax cause its not so messy. My buddy has an SV that he uses lube and has got so far 25k miles out of the chain. He had used wax before and his chain was short lived. Personally I use lube. I'd rather keep my chain for a while.

 

I prefer wax,
A) Not as messy, does not get slung all over the place
B) Dirt sticks to lube and WD-$0 in a bad way and once wax dries about nothing will stick to it.

I am not a professional mechinic though!

Bacon grease would smell better on those warm days

 

I use white lithium grease
