HI,
I read somewhere that paint thinner is pretty good for chain rinsing, I use a spray bottle to clean off residue and excees dirt and oil.
I then mixed the oil with paint thinner 3:1 this seems to improve penatration of oil and when you wipe it off removes excess oil.
Any thoughts would be appreciated, I also read that chain saw bar oil is pretty good bike oil
