EvilPixie Aug 2020 1:10pm, 10 Aug 2020 18,216 posts	0 EvilPixie I use lot of this stuff for chub rub, wetsuit rub and bra rub! But Wiggle seems to be constantly out of stock and Amazon is almost twice the price now so I am guessing this is also a high demand essential product! LOL What other brands/ chaffage solutions do people use? I'm cautious of vaseline with my wetsuit as apparently it's a bad combination!

rf_fozzy Aug 2020 1:14pm, 10 Aug 2020 11,068 posts	0 rf_fozzy EP - it's gone up in price significantly since sometime last year. I got some for Christmas and it was expensive! I think Vaseline is an oil based product (which is why bad with wetsuits) and bodyglide is a waterbased one - so look for something in the latter category. Let me know if you find owt as I also use it.

Sam Jelfs Aug 2020 1:39pm, 10 Aug 2020 734 posts	0 Sam Jelfs no idea how it would work with a wetsuit (probably badly) but I use sudocream for running related lubrication needs, mostly because it isn't absorbed into the skin or washed off by sweat as easily as vaseline so the effect lasts longer.
