Which do you prefer and why?

I bought a wax based lube per numerous recommendations, but I found it to gunk up on the rear derailleur pretty quickly and the chain sounded EXTREMELY dry after only a 20-30 miles.

After de-greasing and switching back to a wet lube, it was SOOooo much better. The drive-train was smooth as silk.

I know the wet lube splatters more, and looks dirtier, but man it feels so much better, and sounds way quieter and smoother when pedaling. It made my bike feel brand new again.

The two products I used were White Lightening Clean and T9. T9 being far superior IMO.

Anyone have a different experience or and I doing something wrong?
