Made a mess with my drivetrain

Couple of days ago I was washing my bike. After drying I decided to try some general purpose spray lube that said good for bikes too. I applied it as I would with my normal lube and enjoyed the ease of use. Went for a ride the next day and all was good. When I got home I realized that my whole rim (which is white) had black grease spots all over. My bike chain was completely black, my cassette and chain rings also had heavy black markings on all the teeth. And when trying to spin the chain backwards, it's very rough sounding and gets stuck. Was this the new lube that made all this or did I just over-apply or lube it wrong.

Thanks
