Waxing bicycle chains instead of oiling them seems to be a recent trend in some enthusiast groups, and paraffin wax is one that can be used. Candles are made of paraffin wax and/or stearin. I wasn’t able to locate a seller with a reasonable package size of pure paraffin wax in stock, but I did have a few dozen small candles in the closet... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get your face down there REALLY close, just to be sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
