That's an intense post. I read a bit and after I saw it was the same as all the other wax posts I went to scroll to the end and just kept going and going. Impressive.
I use a plug in foot bath to wax my track chains. Even on the velodrome I rarely get more than 20-30 miles before the wax is all gone. I've tried different brands and formulations and they're all the same. Must be me.
