SILCA Bike Chain Cleaner and Wax Set for Professionals - 2 Pack with PRO Stripper & Super Secret Wax

Product Description: SILCA Chain Stripper - The Ultimate Solution for Chain Cleaning

Why Strip Your Bicycle Chain?

One of the primary challenges faced by cyclists transitioning to a waxed drivetrain is the necessity of completely removing the factory lubricant from the chain. This is crucial for the wax to adhere effectively. Traditional cleaning methods typically require multiple solvents and rinsing steps, starting with non-polar solvents to dissolve greases and oils, followed by increasingly polar solvents that evaporate swiftly to remove any residuals.

In developing the SILCA Chain Stripper, we took an innovative approach. We began our design process by considering the desired outcome: a product that efficiently eliminates grease and oil while simultaneously encouraging wax adherence to the metal. The SILCA Chain Stripper is the result—a powerful organic cleaner that lifts and traps oils and greases, allowing for easy rinsing from metallic surfaces. This marks the introduction of the world's first chain cleaner specifically optimized for use with wax, effectively preparing your chain for better adhesion with wax lubricants.

What is It?

SILCA Chain Stripper is a concentrated degreaser infused with a wax adhesion promoter (primer) designed to streamline the preparation of new factory chains for waxing. This unique formulation enables quick, single-step prep work while enhancing wax adherence and extending longevity. The process takes less than ten minutes, drastically reducing both the time and range of chemicals needed to correctly prepare a factory-greased chain. Additionally, it can be employed to prepare chains on bicycles for drip wax applications.

Unpacking Your Bundle

Inside your package, you'll find:
- A 4oz bottle of SILCA Chain Stripper with an applicator tip for straightforward application on the bike. For optimal results, however, we advise removing the chain and immersing it in a jar for agitation.
- A 4oz bottle of Super Secret Wax—a multi-award-winning, wax-based lubricant recognized for reducing watt loss and preventing component wear. This product is ideal for quieting and protecting your chain.

How to Strip Your Chain

To prepare a new factory chain for hot-melt waxing using SILCA Secret Blend Hot Melt, simply submerge the chain in the Stripper and agitate for 30 seconds. Let the chain sit for 5-10 minutes and then agitate again for another 30 seconds. Afterward, rinse the chain with water and immediately place it into the hot wax. The water will evaporate within a few minutes, allowing the chain to be fully coated in wax, providing an application life that lasts up to 30% longer than chains cleaned through traditional methods.

When to Re-Lubricate Your Chain

Once all factory grease or road contaminants are removed, apply a single drop of Super Secret to the chain and massage it in using your fingers. Allow the chain to rest for 24 hours after applying the wax to ensure adequate curing before your first ride. For subsequent lubing, an overnight drying period is also recommended.
