This. I’d rather keep it coated. You can get rust spots (and probably some wear) if you push it. I guess in the dry I could easily get 500km before noise but I never get through that distance dry!

Are you and @hippy both doing boiling water from the kettle on the chain before you put it in the wax pot, or just straight into the wax pot off the bike?
I may test out much shorter intervals before changing, as I've been getting some corrosion spots over the last 9 months waxed when replacing once it squeaks.

Nice! 350km is a lot less than I'm getting from speedway, but it sounds like the wax is far cheaper.
Are you changing chains because it starts squeaking, or just proactively?
