How To Use

01

CLEAN

Thoroughly clean drivetrain (chain, cassette, chainrings and pulley wheels) and ensure drivetrain is fully dry before application.

Please note: For a new chain, the manufacturers grease must be thoroughly removed before application.

02

SHAKE

Shake bottle very well before use.

03

APPLY

Apply one drop of chain wax to the inside of each link on the lowest section of the chain, starting at the quick link. Complete 2 full laps of the chain.

04

GEARS

Slowly run through the gears, coating each cog on the cassette.

05

DRY

06

RE-APPLY
