Grump,
I am on my second chain (changed it out at 28,000 miles).
When I see goo start to develop, I ride to the car wash, lift my rear wheel a tad, start spinning wheel and blast away at the chain. Only spray directly from the side and don't stay in any one place long. Doing the inside is a little tricky, spraying through the spokes, just maintain the horizontal spray. Takes about 3 minutes and the chain looks like a new penny. I wipe it down to dry it and apply a fresh light coat of Amsoil metal protector to the inside of chain..
By the way, when I removed my old chain, I broke it apart in several places - there was plenty of wet lube still in there.
Call me crazy, but I ain't spending a lot of time in that greasy mess.
Ride Safe,
Dennis
