Additionally, if they cut my U-lock and choose to cut the chain (not the disc lock), they still can't ride it away. I'll have a better chance spotting someone with a bike on their shoulders.
Mander, which dry lube did you go with? Did you have to degrease everything before switching between wet vs dry lube & vice versa?
I know I had to degrease before I switched from wet lube to wax lube.
Nope, like other teflon lubes my dry lube is suspended in a nice strong solvent, so the first application takes off much of the pre existing chain gunk. I use MEC dry lube. It's poorly reviewed, but it does the trick for me. You have to take these very light lubes for what they are... don't ride in the rain, reapply often, etc.
