A lot of cleaning products work ok in the summer, with 'dry' chain lubes. Winter is another story. A 'dry' lube doesn't last long in the winter and the chain rusts quickly. But a more tenacious 'wet' lube like Finish Line Green becomes a black crawling horror that laughs at cleaners like Simple Green, and can only be removed by mineral spirits - which I won't use indoors in the winter. I need new thinking.
By the way chagzuki, I don't react to mineral spirits but Simple Green gives me immediate asthma-like symptoms.
