  • Where do parts washers (ie Rozone) fit in with prep/cleaning a new chain for wax?

    I’ve got access to one at work - can I use it instead of turps? Do I need to flush afterwards with meths?

    Currently Squirting but I’m considering a switch to immersion. Mostly motivated by chain longevity claims but worried I’m not cleaning properly at the moment, let along enough for immersing.

    I don't think a parts washer would do well on an assembled chain. You'd get the outside of a used chain clean, but it would be days before you got the majority of the oil out of the interior

    So still a bit better than shaking jars of chain and turps then? ;-)

    Cleaning a new chain of it’s factory grease is a bit of a pain and I’m sure this ^ method isn’t the best possible.

    I’d be interested in how you anyone gets on with any method.
