Product Information
Full details
Finish Line Ceramic Wax is ideal for cyclists who prioritize a clean, quiet drivetrain and want to minimize maintenance time. It uses advanced ceramic boron nitride and fluoropolymer particles to provide a long-lasting, low-friction coating that repels grit and grime rather than attracting it. While it offers superior cleanliness compared to traditional wet lubes, users should note that frequent reapplications may be required in wet or muddy conditions to maintain optimal performance.

FAQs
Do I need to strip my chain of old oil before using Ceramic Wax?
Yes. Ceramic Wax will not bond correctly if there is old petroleum-based grease present on the chain.
How often should I reapply the lubricant?
In dry conditions, reapply every 75-100 miles or whenever the chain noise increases.
Can I use this for mountain biking in the mud?
While it works for mountain biking, it is a wax-based lubricant and will wash off faster than a heavy wet-weather oil lube in extreme rain or mud.
Is it compatible with all chain types?
Yes, it is safe for all standard road and mountain bike chains, including those with coatings.
Does the bottle need shaking?
Always shake the bottle vigorously before each use to ensure the nano-ceramic particles are properly suspended in the solution.
Troubleshooting
Chain becomes noisy quickly
This often indicates insufficient wax has penetrated the rollers or it was applied over old oil. Degrease the chain thoroughly and reapply.
White waxy residue appearing on the drivetrain
This is normal, but excessive clumping means you applied too much. Wipe the chain more thoroughly after application.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Drivetrain stays clean and free of abrasive grit
- Extremely smooth and quiet operation
- No black, gummy buildup on chain components
- Highly efficient reduction of friction
- Easy to apply and maintain
Cons
- Requires more frequent reapplication than oil-based lubricants
- Performance can diminish rapidly in heavy rain or deep mud
- Initial application requires a perfectly clean chain for best results
Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, you must start with a clean slate. Before applying Ceramic Wax, use a degreaser to remove all traces of old, oily lubricant from your chain, cassette, and derailleur pulleys. Ensure the drivetrain is completely dry before applying the wax.
- Shake the bottle well to disperse the ceramic particles.
- Apply a thin stream of wax to the inside of the chain rollers while backpedaling.
- Let the lubricant set for at least an hour before your first ride.
- For maintenance, simply wipe the chain with a dry cloth and reapply as needed when you notice the drivetrain becoming noisy.
