Specialist Motorbike Chain Cleaner Spray 400ml - Cleans And Protects, Easy To Use, Total Solution

Just the job

Bought a new to me (20 year old) bike 5 months ago, and finally fitted a chain oiler to it. Saw how filthy the chain was during fitting. As I had already bought some of this from amazon for my other bike (which now will get its chain cleaned) but had never used, I decided to give it a go. Worth mentioning: it is not like brake cleaner that evaporates quickly, it is more like paraffin, so you might want to take measures to both capture it in a drip-tray of some sort, and to keep it off your tyre and rear brake disk. I took precautions because I did not want to splatter old lube/grease and dirt all over my rear tyre and brakes, As I was at work I used a car drip tray, the sort you put under a car engine to stop oil/coolant getting on the floor diring repairs, slid under the rear wheel with the bike on the centre stand, it caught most of it, and I just pored it in our was oil tank. To keep it off the rear wheel/tyre and brakes I got a large bit of corrugated cardboard, cut a rough hole in the middle and then cut from the hole to the edge. With some trimming I got this to act as a shield behind the chain/sprocket to keep the cleaner off the wheel and disk. As this cleaner is not water based it did not make the cardboard go soggy during use. So, now I was ready to actually use it. It is very effective. I ended up using 2 tins, but the chain was very very dirty, and very very dry with caked on lube, and I had left my chain brush at home. Sorry guys at work, the brush from the tea room sink got repurposed, and is now in the bin. . . The previous owner had owned the bike for a year and about 600 miles, and I guess the chain was dirty when he got it, and never cleaned while he owed it, the lube was tar like. By the time I had used both tins I had found out that the chain was one of those with gold links, a detail that was previously impossible to notice. Will give the chain a second clean using my chain brush (now at work) to finish the job off. Liked I so much I bought it again.

Does the job

All Good Thanks, A+++

got this to replace another well known brand of chain cleaner - does the job well - I like it

great does what it says cleans chain but protects the seals better than just normal WD40 which is to harsh on the O/X rings

item arrived on time in good order this cleaner is very good at cleaning the dirt and old lubricant from the chain very pleased with my purchase .

Does a fantastic job for my motorcycle chain
