Yes, well, you see, umm, I've tried various chain lubes through the decades and never found anything ideal. One feature of the old-days' chain lubes was they made a mess, and now I'm thinking that cleaning the messy chain is more important. And perhaps that not making a mess in the first place is important too.
FWIW, my chains don't get rusty.
