I pretty much agree with everything you said, Woody. ProLink seems to be excellent for that grit-displacement process you refer to. Wax seems to dampen noise more than liquid lubes, and that may make some people think it's doing a better job. But that's just the mass of the wax dampening vibration, IMO. Like padding.

I went through a period several years ago where I was driving my bike to where I was starting my rides (I was rehabbing, so I was riding on a state park path). I was trying White Lightning, and kept it in the car. One fine chilly morning I found the stuff had congealed enough that I had to warm it on the engine block to get it to flow out of the bottle. That's when I realized I rerally didn't want this stuff on my chain.
