chrisgatguis Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 Hi all, What Chain wax should I use? Is there anything in Halfords that is suitable? when I looked there only seemed to be one chain lubricant which was a spray.I presumed that i'd be able to get something which wasn't an areosol? or is this the norm?thanksChris Quote
Guest akey Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 Most are spray mate, but I have used chainsaw oil in the past, its very good, easy to clean off if it flings and I just used to put it on the chain with an old paint brush. Quote
Korben Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 I think Hlafords sell Castrol which is good. I would get yourself down to your local bike shop though. You will have more choice there. Quote
