Default serving wax or lube

With serving wax being fairly expensive for what you get, is there a cheaper or better choice that comes in a bigger qty?

Question ???

I just did a quick google search and a 1 ounce tube goes for $3 or less at multiple retailers. I got a tube with my xbow last year and use the wax religiously.... and havent even used 1/4 of the tube... so I'm looking at this tube lasting a good 4 or 5 years. So, how big of a tube do you really need?

So little volume is needed to maintain your string that I have to ask............ what you are doing with it?
The best string/serving wax I've seen is Dalton 200

Rookie question! Do you Jigaloo users put this product just on the rail or actually wipe it on the server/string as well? Thanks for the help.
