Went Oaxaca, Mazunte, Puerto Escondido, Mexico City earlier this year.
I wouldn’t say any of them were ‘musts’ but I enjoyed my trip, few chill days on the beach in Mazunte was great.
Oaxaca wasn’t as exciting as I hoped it would be. Almost felt a bit sleepy when I was there. Nice but I wouldn’t stay long.

I reckon this is a good buy for anyone after a 565

I was initially going to use a casserole dish in the oven, but then decided against it. I’m glad as I needed to swish the chain a bit.
Boil in a bag sounds good, didn’t think of that. Assume you just keep the bag with leftover wax in and reuse it? Any special bag?
Note I can use my appliance to actually wax my legs too tho… that’s not happening in a bag.

User snoops has long been in my ear about chain waxing and I relented. I sat down the other night and devoured this thread and I don’t want to be all billy big balls about this, but I think I’ve nailed it from the off.
I bought this leg / salon wax pot. It’s very compact and just the right size if you don’t want anything big lying around. You wouldn’t want any smaller. It looks like the one campanaerts is using in his vid and it has a temperature gauge.
I bought this kerrawax and PTFE off eBay as it was the path of least resistance.
I also bought 100g of beeswax as it popped up on Amazon (sorry) for £3.75 when I bought the pot.
I think I went 225g kerrawax, 25g beeswax, and 25g PTFE and it was perfect amount and depth to submerse my chain in this pot, without wastage. So I’ve got half my ingredients left and extra beeswax.
The actual metal pot itself has a handle so you can pull it out (it sits inside a secondary pot) which will come in handy for cleaning it.
I won’t look back and I’m even giving up on squirt for optimum cleanliness.
