Self-serve car wash sounds like good idea for tourists w/gunked-up chains. Don't have a pressure washer but buying a good pin-point hose nozzle would help. Pro team mechanics use degrease 'n hose spray. While the old engine degreasers worked better I just now read that there are big differences in current citrus degreaser quality so I'll have to give them a try again.
