A great project to do if you want a clean chain, fast, and smooth chain.
No grease marks, no mess, and longer chain life.
And an old-school hack to boot.
tools needed:
Chain tool–either pliers to break open the master link or a pin vise for pushing out a pin.
spare master link (if your chain needs one–and most current chains do)
degreaser
soap
water
tub for hand agitation or ultrasonic cleaner for high-speed agitation
1lbs of pure paraffin (wax)
Empty coffee can
pot to create a double-boiler
Wire to loop into chain
