cleaning the chain

Kerosene works great as do the spray cleaners. I use WD-40. I place a large drip pan under the rear tire and a square of cardboard between the chain and tire to avoid getting overspray on the tire. I then soak the chain in WD-40, wait a few minutes then go over it with a tooth brush. A dry rag finishes the job. I lube with Tirox. I like Tirox because it seems to pick up less grit than others I have used. I live on a dirt road and can tell the differenve.
