Questions & Answers

It can be used to degrease steel plates if they need to be painted afterwards. ?

They would certainly be degreased by it, and there wouldn't be too much left behind You may use the following phrase if applicable - That residue remains. However, I am not sure if that will harm the bond between the paint and wood. Whether the paint will peel or not depends on the type. My recommendation would be to use Clean Streak and then wipe the plates down with the correct thinner for your paint.

What are the effects on carbon fiber and plastic?

Over the past 5 years, I've used it to wipe down my chains and sprockets almost every day. doubt that there will be any overspray of the White Lightning Clean Streak on the 100% carbon fiber bike frame, which is always under spray. It is not a problem in the least. In five years' time, if there were going to be trouble with it damaging carbon fiber, I would have known that already.

What is the nozzle size of this product? Could you recommend a can that has a nozzle attachment that I can use to degrease my RD pulleys?

With it is a 5 inch (or so) long plastic straw that fits comfortably If you wish to switch from the narrow to wider spray, the straw can be removed. This straw is similar to the ones you might see paired with different

In addition to the chain, is this safe to use on derailers, brake pads, pedals, and other grimy parts?

When I have used it on my derailleurs (for almost three years now), I have never had a problem. Relubing them when I'm done is part of my routine. The brake pads wouldn't be safe to use with this product. Rubber alcohol is the one I reach for for those. As long as you grease the pedals after the assembly is complete, it should work fine.

Snorting glue is a thing of the past
5/5

There will be a lot of bad things happening! That was a bad move. You'll be able to melt grease and grime from your chain and experience the same hazy high as you would if smoked glue. It is best used outdoors unless you are an addict. Not having to rinse it with water has its advantages, however Very convenient if you are cleaning your chain in Qaryat al-Arabia Water, F*w, and Arabia cannot be found anywhere else than camels' humps, so if there is any residue left on your chain links after application, wipe it thoroughly with a rag and allow it to evaporate before applying It would be wise for you to rethink this After you lube your bike, you should wash it and allow it to air dry. It's then game over for you. There's really something wrong with this stuff. The only thing I wish was that it was cheaper. But it's still a decent high regardless.

My experience has been that they are overpriced relative to their competitors
3/5

There are some moderate degreasing properties in this product, but I had to go over my chain and gears again with a different brand to get my chain back to its If you find a review from someone who uses this and similar products every day, you can trust that person more than I can. However, I own 3 mountain bicycles that I ride on dirt, mud, and dust every single day, so they are tested and used I found when comparing this product to others that it doesn't seem to remove all the grease, oil, and dirt completely. A generous amount of this product was applied to my bike chain, and it was deemed largely free of oil and dirt, however the chain was nonetheless a dingy grey color and was obviously not close to what it was originally. With another product that I have had success with, I was able to restore the look of the chain to almost new and generally have it gleam as it did when it was brand new. There are so many positive reviews for this product and I am sure I got a bad batch or bottle of it. I am a bit surprised at how many individuals were so happy with this product. Regardless of my experience with the product, I have not been impressed with the results and unless something is wrong with my bottle, I will not be using or purchasing My only regret is that this product has been on my shelf for several months now. Had I not had several months since purchasing it, Lastly, I find this degreaser to only moderately effective. It may be a great deal for the money if you know how you will use it, however the benefit to cost ratio is quite high, making it not worth the money for.

I have bought a new stable to put my work bench on
5/5

When there is no water to be found and there is no time to clean, this little tool came in handy. True to its job description, it achieves its goals. There is a clear direction to the stream, and it does not scatter at all. This gas is also given off by the can with quite a bit of force. It is because of this that the product really is able to clean chain rods without causing damage. In fact, I would highly recommend installing a quick link to your chain so that you can do as I did by removing it and putting it in the ground to be cleaned. Grease literally drips off the chain like water, and if you're not careful, it will get on other parts of your bike. As for getting the spray on other parts of the bike, I also prefer to avoid getting the solvent spray on other parts of the bike. My doubt is that this stuff degrades the resin in carbon frames, but it seems extremely volatile and I have to wonder how this stuff works. As a result, I am cautious not to get it on my skin, because it is so heavy. As such, you should not use this in any sort of closed environment. It would be a little too much for me, even if the garage door was open. In spite of the large size of the can, the product contains quite a bit of product. After four cleanings, I am not close to being halfway done with it. The removal of the chain for cleaning has certainly contributed to that. I can tell by the smell of the product how strong it is and that shows in its use as well. There is no doubt that cleaning can be extremely fast and effective. I wish I had tried it.

I have tried all of them
5/5

I found this to be the best tool I have Every year, right after spring, I would search for a new chain cleaning device to make it simpler for my wife and me to keep our recumbent two wheel Linear Limo's chains clean and lubricated. Most of the time, Parks chain cleaners will hit the floor at least once during the season and something will break In addition to these brands, I also tried others that gave The traditional type is messy and fragile, as I noted throughout. *This is a great one. By holding the top of the container down, the solvent cleaner will automatically pour out. The trick is holding the pen just right so that the chucking motion will work with one hand, and I had to try it twice before I finally got However, it is clean, effective, and easy to use. Follow up with Rock n Roll Red and a wipe down of the chain. liked it so much that I am going to buy a couple more for when it becomes discontinued and I can no longer find it on Amazon. I find this product very good. The refill is excellent and the unit fits perfectly on top of the large size refill. (I won't get anything for this. It was such a nice discovery I wanted to tell everyone about it before it disappeared from the market).

4/5

This heavy duty degreaser comes in a big can. As an out of habit practice, I have used another brand for years. I have sometimes used speed formula and sometimes citrus. It is hard to find a better degreaser than White Lightning. You receive a lot more uses out of a can and the price is lower. My yellow speed degreaser has gone through a large can in a couple cleanings. On the other hand, I did a major overhaul on my bike the other day and used less than 1/4 of the For the time being, I will continue to use the White Lightning degreaser.

This could be used again, but I am unsure
3/5

The purpose of this purchase was to clean my bicycle for commuting. After cutting through the grease it says that it is meant to be used on bicycles. It worked wonderfully. lubricated the chain pretty well after the bike completely dried, but I noticed that it still feels like it is As a result, I was concerned that the sand would somehow get into the As of now, I'm going to continue to wash it with just soap and water until I am able to take it apart and do a more thorough inspection.
