I have recently fit new c&s to my bike. Only problem is, my back wheel is now covered in really sticky chain grease! I have tried normal soap/detergent and it won't come off! Can anyone suggest a de-greaser (UK available product) that won't harm the finish on my wheels. I have looked at GUNK, but it say's on the can that it may harm paintwork. My bike is my pride and it is in very good condition for it's age. I don't want to spoil it....

I've had good luck wit Simple Green. Don't know if it's available in the UK.

I use WD40 or any other spray on lubricant. I usually mix it with soap and water to calm it a little and off the grime comes.

I used to run into this quite a bit with the old chain lube I used. Now that I use chain wax it is much better.

If none of that stuff works break out the Goo-Gone!

Diesel fuel also works and is universally available and cheap.
