Degreasing instructions

Clean and dry the chain

 

In order for the liquefied and hot wax to get onto and especially into the chain, the links must be thorough from the original greasing (oil) free.

This can be done by diluting it with nitro thinner in a mason jar.

One or more chains are shaken a few times until the nitro thinner remains clear.

Depending on the manufacturer, this may take a little longer. Usually 1-3 passes.

The nitro thinner can be easily reused afterwards if you run it through a filter (coffee filter).

Attention: This should only be done in the fresh air and ideally while wearing respiratory protection.

​

Important, no matter what your requirements are when growing, it is important that the chain is as fat-free as possible becomes.

​

The last step should be to use a brake cleaner. The advantage here is that it evaporates without leaving any residue.

• The last bit of factory grease and metal abrasion can now be removed from the chain using an ultrasound device and a splash of alkaline cleaning fluid.
  (But this is not a must.)

At the Regrowth the chain then driven is all this is no longer necessary.

​

Of course, please don't put any more oil on it afterwards, otherwise the whole process would start all over again.

By the way: All liquids that are produced in this way are a case for the recycling center!
