Strengths: It applies easily and the wax that is left when the carrier evaporates is clearly visible on the chain. It blocks the gaps in the chain plate and rollers keeping, salt, sand and other dirt/grit out of the chain bushing area.Weaknesses: Needs another lube, medium weight chain oil, be applied to the center of the chain to keep a good lube on the roller/busing part of the chain.Bottom Line: This stuff keep the grit out of the chain bushing and on the outside of the chain. When used with a good roller lube it works great. It's easy to apply and maintain. Far better than the old school way of heating paraffin in a can and dropping a chain in the liquid wax.
I have used in on old style large metal zippers and metal luggage zippers to improve their action.

Strengths: cleans your chain, smoothWeaknesses: gets dry quickBottom Line: good overall lube, i love it! the only downside is that after about 20 miles or so (when its not wet) it starts to dry up very quickly. in the wet, it doesnt last that long either but it does keep your chain nice and clean. good overall lube, if only it lasted longer!!

Strengths: Does a great job of cleaning the chain.
Weaknesses: Doesn't last very long.Bottom Line: This is a decent chain lube. It is easy to apply and you don't need to wipe the chain after applying it.
The best thing about this is how it cleans your chain. Squirt some on the chain and spin your chain backwards really fast. The lube seems to bind to the grime and fling it off your chain.
Only drawback is that it doesn't last very long at all in dry conditions, forget it in wet conditions, an hour of riding tops. Does not work at all under 40 degrees, it just gums up your drivetrain. Also, if you spill some on your wheel/tire it looks like someone splooged on your bike.
Three Flamin' Chillis. This stuff is good, but there's better out there.
