Du pont Teflon Chain Saver wax based chain lube

This product has the exact same dupont product number on the label as the Dry Wax lube. Dupont says it is OK for chains, I guess the dry wax chain lube is supposedly better (?).

From the dupont home page:

High RPM chains like motorcycle, ATV, Go-Kart where conventional heavier oils attract excessive amounts of abrasive contaminants. Multi-Use is O-Ring safe (Note: For chains used in extremely high contaminant environments, please use DuPont™ Chain Saver)

I'm surprised they're using the same product number - notice they changed the label - "Dry, Wax" is omitted.
A lot of riders like the DuPont Multi-Use. Not sure what they think of it now, because the formula has changed according to DuPont.

I would think the dry wax would prevent it from flinging.

Yes, that's what it's supposed to do. Not sure why DuPont changed their multi-use product.

I think I will try some of that when my 4 oz container of 10 dollar oil runs out. who would have thought I would get oil on my tire.

I went into the local Suzuki shop to see if they had the right size metric O rings for my oil sensor pipe which they did and the guy tells me no charge :woohoo:

So I grabbed a can Spectro chain wax , very flammable, poisonous, and bad for the environment
plus it's made in the U.S., how could I go wrong

Im using Du pont Teflon Chain Saver wax this year again...easy to use, cleanup and dosent dis-color the chain with a white paste. Worked good for me.

Yeah, I have my old empty can of the teflon multi-use dry wax lubricant and the number is D00110101.

My new full can of dupont teflon multiuse lubricant (no dry wax in the title) is also the same.

FYI: last year I read that the Multi Use Dry Wax was exactly the same product as their dry wax chain lube except labeled different and cost less.

Not sure why DuPont changed their multi-use product.

I guess to keep cheapskates like me from getting the better wax chain lube for less money.

how much is dupont paying you all to stay on topic this well?
