Switched from Park Tool chain lube to Boeshield T-9 after a 50 mile rain ride

I was using Park Tool's synthetic lube for months, but after a soaked ride through Seattle my chain was grinding by mile 30. Tried Boeshield T-9 on a buddy's advice and it stayed quiet for the whole 50 miles with zero rust. Anybody else find a specific lube that just works way better for wet weather?

Man that dry chain grind is brutal, happens to all of us. Boeshield is seriously the best thing I've found for wet weather commuting. Been using it for about two years now, even on those days where it's just constant drizzle my chain stays quiet and clean. A buddy of mine tried it after his standard lube gummed up in the rain and he was pretty blown away too.

Wait, isn't Boeshield more for rust protection than actual chain lubrication though?
