I throw the pot on the stove and take a shower or something...then in under 5 mins the whole process is done. That's a pain to do?? No. Not really all that effective? I've been waxing with parrafin since the 1970s and let me tell you, it's very effective and clean. Also, Friday I got caught yet again in the light rain. I don't see any problem here--the wax sheds water like a duck and my chain still looks well waxed. I do make it a habit of re-waxing if my drivetrain gets very wet and I'm close to my 200 mile mark however--just because the process is so easy and quick to do.

You use White Lightning and you make it clear it works fine for you. Good for you. But to constantly rag on parrafin waxing saying it isn't effective and it's a pain to do seems out of line imo. It isn't a pain to do and it is very effective alternative to oil and wax based commercial lubes like White Lightning.
