  • Yeah, buying MSW stuff is always going to be more expensive than DIY but also less hassle, less storage requirements, etc. Easier for me to justify for one race bike's chain since moneygun.gif and it'll probably last longer than the bike does.

    What about adding the teflon but not the MoS2? I presume you would get an efficiency increase but no mess or at least white shit everywhere and not black shit everywhere? Still not sure I want to bother with additives yet but if you were looking to go halfsies in some of this crap I might be interested.

    I'll give it a think, if I were to do it I think I'd premix bags so you could just chuck in a baggie when you add a pound of wax. I'd need to contact the local drug dealer pharmacist to get a load of small baggies but I could supply pre-mixed bags to minimize the faff on your end. I expect that everything will be covered in non-removable black dust the second I start, might as well push on for a bit then.

    I managed to add the molybdenum disulphide and PTFE powder to my paraffin wax without making a mess. If I can do it without making a mess, pretty much anyone should.
