Don't need ANY rail lube if you use Dalton's string conditioner in stead of other wax. Sticky stuff like chapstick attracts dirt which facilitates string and deck wear.

Last year I quit using typical greasy rail lube and starting using PB Blaster spray teflon on the rail, no more wear on the serving. Just my two cents.
