anyone ever bothered with injecting it through the drain holes in the bottom of the frame when doing a full resto? Is it worthwhile?

there´s usually one drain hole on each italian frame amounting to the rear brake pedal...
I´ve put a similar wax into my frame on the last resto, no problems and i think it helps!

They should be cleaned out after painting, they let any water out, putting waxoyl in may block them up and just move the water up the tube. Another way is to move to some where hotter :baddevil:
