Anyone tried putting a chain through the dishwasher?
I’m not suggesting it’s a good idea, just curious, ours seems to to a good job on crudded up baking trays, obviously you’d need to lube it straight after, I reckon it might be worth a trial…
Hmmm, nope it’s a bad plan, I’ll stick to the jam jar approach for now…
Edit:
place into sauce pan immerse in sunflower oil
put on a low heat and stir for a few minutes
remove chain while still warm and draw it through a rag
repeat if necessary
this will clean your chain – happy days.
Is that actually cleaning it or basically just adding a viscous lube to a grimey chain?
I sort of like the idea, but I think I’d want to at least try and flush some of the crap out of the chain first and than use something more like a proper chain wax than cooking oil to be sure the chain held some lube…
