I would say so, yes. In my experience the solid particles that get into the chain are normally worked out of the links and to the surface when you use wax. With oil lubricants i've found the solid particles will work themselves into the most abrasive location possible.

Thinking of beach camping next weekend and the bike would stay next to me on the sand. Should I take a 2nd chain just to be safe?
