| Easy off
Stay away from the foaming "No Fume" stuff. Stick to the good old cancer causing stuff. Coming from a honest to god Cancer paitent you know it must be a big difference. |

I used liquid plumber, thick. Worked great, even left the original axial printing on the links. Set it in there, keep an eye on it, stir it around a bit, wait 10 to 15 minutes. Rinse with warm water then soak in baking soda and water to neatralize the acid. Use a lil Never-Dull wadding to polish it up in like 2 minutes. Works awesome. Bling Bling |

I use Drano Crystals. its the powdered kind..... get a disposable turkey pan, put all your green parts in the pan. fill the pan up with COLD water to cover all your parts. once you have your parts in the water, sprinkle some Drano crystals over the parts (about 2 table spoons). the parts will start to bubble, the water will start to turn green, WITH GLOVES ON, pull the parts out and check em dont leave them in for longer than 2-3 minutes... once the parts are all raw aluminum colored, take them all out of the solution and rinse them with COLD water..... dump the rest of the solution down your closest clogged drain, and start polishing your new not green parts. |

Drano Gel all the way. I put it in one of those tin pans 10min or so. Stirred it around a bit, then washed it in some soapy water, and polished with a dremel. It came out fabulous.

eazy off works the quickest or castrol super clean. How about just make your own links and spacers.
