If it's muddy/wet, I'll wax after the ride, even if it's only 20mi.
I've added PTFE and Molybdenum Disulfide to my wax. They settle out a bit, so I don't want to scrape them out. I'm at 150 miles and looking good on my current wax, got about 350 out of an application of straight paraffin before I added the stuff this time around.
