Disclaimer Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Anyone ever try this stuff? http://www.properautocare.com/dupelu.htmlI've read on a few others sites that this stuff is pretty good, cheap, and found at Lowes, Home Depot, etc. The dealer recommends chain wax, and I've always just used a little 3-n-1 oil on my chain when it looks a little dry, without issues. I'd like to keep the 'busa chain going for a loooong time.Any opinions? What do you guys/gals use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleCock Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I've used that spray and it's quality - doesn't smell as bad as wd40 either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfman Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I've been using the PJ1 Blue Label chain lube lately. It dries clear and seems to work great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flounder Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I use this which is exactly what lowes sells. I use it on my dirtbike, and both street bikes. The shit is golden.. Comes out like water but NO fling at all..http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=213197-39963-D00110101&lpage=none Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaNick Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 <-----------You know that right?Anyways, I have used WD-40 for 5 years now and my chains last forever. Doesn't rob horsepower either like the thick, gunky chain waxes. Chain waxes also collect dirt and grime. Clean and WD-40'd is the only way in my garage.

r1crusher Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I clean with WD and then finish with Maxima Chain Wax. A little fling but since I clean after each ride it's not a problem. I had the STOCK chain on my ZX-7 last for over 30,000 miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mc_spirited Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I use chain wax. WD 40 or kerosene to clean.I've been told that the propellant in WD 40 is bad for O-rings in chains. I would never just use WD40 to lube my chain. Maybe in the case of an emergency, maybe. Anyone else have information that WD40 is bad?

NinjaNick Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Yeah, heard that nonsense get beaten around too. It's even made for chains. Says right on the can too. Plus the fact that many get years and thousands of miles out of WD40 on their chain is great proof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benyen Soljax Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 well since we already heard what the "alternative lifestyle" crowd uses (flounder), and what the rednecks use (ninjanick), why dont we hear from the racers out there (lizard1). not to name any names or anything...
