Absolutely, and I do appreciate that not only did you ask, you also appear to be heeding the advice.
My comment was not meant personally, just a commentary upon some of the more harebrained ideas of lubrication out there, especially those that cause more harm than good. We charge $15 extra to clean drivetrains with tough to remove "lubricants", some that appear to be stuff dredged up from the LaBrea tarpits. $15 buys a lot of chainlube that will wash off with much milder solvents...including soap.
