I still need to work out what to do with my CeramicSpeed race chain. It's way over its coating lifespan, the bottle of Drip I have seems to have gone off. I don't know if degreasing it will remove the wax or if I should use something else. Maybe I could just send it to WattShop and have their coating put on it? I could just wipe it down and buy another bottle of Drip but it's pretty spendy.

I used fancy Silca wax on my chain, cassette and chainring for my TT bike last week, it's the melt in the bag sous vide method so didn't even use a crockpot. Took an age to melt but super easy and silent, shiny drivetrain ftw.
Not sure I could go whole hog this winter though - I probably ride 2-3 times a week between 50m-100 miles each ride and it's usually wet... cleaning the bike every time so it's not much more time compared to wiping down a waxed chain, relubing etc.
