Chain Cleaning - Methods and Products

[dirt road_imp]

I used kerosene for many years. Cleans great but the smell and the mess was terrible. For the last few years I've been using Maxima CleanUp Chain Cleaner. Spray it on . Use a brush only if the chain is very dirty. Hose it off ON YOUR DRIVEWAY . Then it all hoses off into the grass. Nothing left on the driveway. No bad smell. No harm to bare hands , concrete, grass or any motorcycle surfaces. Then I run the rear wheel at idle with a hairdryer on the chain. For safe measure I dry it more over night. This stuff has been the best . It'll cost more than kerosene, but worth it to me.
