Have been using the Finish Line Ceramic Dry on my road bike as an alternative to Squirt (which is fantastic stuff if you have the time to relube properly between every wet ride, or ideally don’t ride in the wet at all!).
The Finish Line was pretty frustrating to begin with, went on so wet that it just seemed to spray/drip through the chain and pool on the newspaper I had put down beneath, cue newspaper with expensive ceramic coating 👿
I tried applying it as gently as possible but eventually resorted to refrigerating it for a while first to make it less liquidy, this seemed to work and you could actually see the lube drying on the chain instead of just dripping through.
It also took several applications (i.e. more than half the bottle) before the bloody stuff seemed to actually do anything, prior to that the chain sounded very dry. Now though it’s actually running quite smoothly and I’m hoping from here on it will stay that way, kind of like Squirt in that you maybe have to build up a base of the stuff.
Will be interested to see if it holds up in the wet of course, it’s just been dry summer miles so far…
