I have decided to switch to chain waxing and just wanted to check how i am best to remove factory grease from multiple chains. Am i OK doing each individually with the same wax and adding a new Strip Chip each time or do I need to do something else?
I think I have answered my own question with SILCAs faq
βIS THE WAX RUINED AFTER I USE STRIPCHIP?
No! You can use up to 6 StripChips to wax 6 new chains per 500g bag of wax. If you are running one bike, that should be a decade of new chains. If you are putting new chains on frequently for new bikes, we suggest getting a new bag of wax for the 7th chain and beyond. This is due to the ratio of Oleogelator to regular wax.
Once you have stripped your new chain and waxed it, you can simply keep using the same batch of wax. That 500g bag of wax will typically be enough for 40-50 chain waxings.β
