kerosene, wd-40, or diesel fuel?[/u]
New chains I use kerosene to clean off all the white sticky crap (I think it is white lithium grease). Later usually use a hand dish soap (dawn or joy). Sometimes I will use kerosene to get it really clean. I had been using a Honda lube that does not last in rain but it cleans up easily. Recently I have started using Chain Wax lube since I have been caught in the rain several times.
I bought some chain lube... its in a can and is thick black junk. It got all over my white wheels.. grr
Cleaning wheels ... dish washing liquid.

Yea lots of things will work ... including gas and kerosene ... for wheels, there is no O rings ...

just wondering if diesel fuel would work to clean the chain since it's mostly oil anyways....??
ya I remember those white wheel days...Clean polish-ride-clean again....I had enough and broke out the can of krylon 8) I went w/ a black wheel and taped it up so the spokes are a marron red
