Is Beaver stuff different to the majority of others? Well, the other things that look the same and are supposed to do the same thing at least...

I got some stuff with my drysuit (couple of years ago), the wet lube type stuff for zips, and it was useless. Well, wasn't toooo bad, but when I got a lump (stick) of beeswax it was sooooo much better. Seemed to last much longer too.

However- the Beaver stuff comes in a handy applicator bottle with a brush and will last about 2 years. So that's £1.75 per year. Now call me fussy but £1.75 a year is not a huge amount to spend. And I'm sure a dozen tealights and all the effort of arsing about will cost more.
