No clue about the lizard skins thing, but have you considered the ol’ inner tube trick (it’s free if you have an old inner tube). Simply cut about a 2 foot length of tube, slice it down the middle, spiral wrap it (like wrapping a road bike handlebar) around your chainstay, cut off the excess, and secure it with some electrical tape (three or four wraps should suffice). It’s free, It’s functional, it almost eliminates noise from "chain slap", and when done right it looks good too. Hope this info helps out a little 😉 .
