How can a drip-on applied lube possibly permeate the tiny gaps as well as a hot soaking of a chain (even in the same stuff)?
Aye, I suppose there’s just no getting around it really.
I’ve got some absolute black wax ready to try but I’ve yet to find the motivation to use it.Is there a cheap forum approved ultrasonic cleaner? They all look like much of a muchness

The cheaper ones aren't so good. If you read his articles or listen to the podcast he talks about using jars and shaking first or using multiple runs, etc.
I've taken to using boiling water to strip off the old wax before re-coating so I can keep my wax cleaner. I've also bought some higher quality paraffin to see if that makes any difference when I run out of the current stuff.
I need to prep a new chain for the Mason so I'm going to use a couple of jars to do a primary strip of factory lube before using the ultrasonic. Or I'll just put the jars with degreaser in the ultrasonic full of water to save having to use so much degreaser.
hippy
That will never be the case though, will it? How can a drip-on applied lube possibly permeate the tiny gaps as well as a hot soaking of a chain (even in the same stuff)?
What does that Aussie chain waxing nerd say about it?
