  • What did I do wrong? I cleaned the chain in petrol, then degreaser, then meths. Melted the paraffin wax and left the chain in for a while made sure there were no rising bubbles, took out, fexed the chain and wiped off excess wax deposits, chain showed signs of rust in a week's use!

    You made the mistake of thinking that waxing has anything to do with corrosion protection.

  • I only drag the chain out when the wax has almost started to solidify again otherwise much of the wax runs off. Rewax if/when it's rusty/covered in road grit.
