Waxing spool with chapstick?

[Jigtosser]

Swami, I think you and me were riding the same sets 
It has been around a very long time, I started using it in the early 70's
Good stuff !!!

I also don't see anything wrong here.
Also, we've talked about these in the past with no issues:

These have also been around for some time... maybe selling strategy but it is what it is.

I had forgotten to update. The barrels were too expensive to be worth it in any quantities for reel techs. You can by three chapsticks for what I could get the barrels for. Chapstick is filled by a third party manufacturer I do business with.

How about Corrisoin X

Saltwater fishing sounds like too much work.

Keep a tube on the boat for zippers and snaps, never tried it on a reel, but for the fasteners the stuff has everything but sex.

Since my son grew up surfing we always used his surf wax. I still do. With the reel in the line spooler i can push the surf wax stick on the spool while its turning. Also on the line as its being spooled on.

When spooling I spray the line with a quality silicone spray at about 100m intervals

i'm still using a super light coat of yamaha marine grease.

 Boeshield on the spool to prevent corrosion.

[Dj. Dubé]

Use dry silicone spray or blue Yamaha grease lightly applied

I would put a bit of bees wax at the base of the spool to keep the braid ed line from spinning on the spool.Pat

Love Chap on the boat for plastic zippers and snaps.

I just got me some ceramic and carnauba car wax on Amazon, if it doesn't work, or smells bad I might try the surf wax, for now my idea is to go ceramic first, since supposedly it binds with the metal,  then carnauba on top
