Loose rear end

I like the spray wax cuz it doesn't seem to attract dirt as much as oils. Plus it seems to stay put on the chain better. I spray it on when the chain is warm and let it sit a while to "set". Have not tried the teflon. About the looseness... The rear axle nut should be pretty darn tight.(hows that for a technical term). Any slippage there would make it feel loose. Also there are marks on the swing arms to help align the wheel. Loose spokes are to be avoided as well. My 2 cents.
