I don't understand . I have a bent coathanger that the chain is threaded onto in a couple spots, and the other end sits on the lip of the crockpot. In 10 years of waxing I've never "waited for the crock to cool"- I pull the chain out, let it drip for 30 sec, then hang to completely solidify. Never a need to allow it to cool.
I do try to put the chain in on top of cold wax, or if not to leave it in for 30 min so its the same temp as the wax.
Wax works ok in the wet, but I'd likely rewax at first opportunity. It doesn't do well with wet and road grit.
