It works the same way, there is no need to go through any hassle. You only have to re-do it every two weeks or even less often.
WD40 IS NOT a lubricant, it's a Water Displacer, note the letters WD in WD40? Once the water is displaced and the WD40 has evaporated then you apply a lubricant.
Wax based lubes do not last, usually around 65 to 75 miles and the chain will start to make noise, and of course where there is noise there is rapid wear going on. Any of the other non-wax based lubes though are all good. I personally use Finish Line Teflon Dry Plus and I think it ranks right up there with the best lubes on the market for bike chains.
