Já usei varias vezes e nunca tive problemas nem nunca "contaminou" a corrente. Mas eu estou a falar de produtos que normalmente temos em casa. Comprar por comprar mais vale o Morgan Blue tal como diz o usuario elpatron.Faz mal porque contamina a corrente com os aditivios que leva.
Se queres usar produtos disponiveis numa loja estilo Leroy Merlin, usa Aguarras de limpeza (white spirit) e alcool desnaturado.

Tools required:
The process:
- A jar or similar bottle
- A strong degreaser for initial cleaning
- Denatured alcohol (methylated spirits) for final prep
- An air compressor and/or hair dryer (optional)
- An ultrasonic cleaner (optional)
- Clean chain with a preferred method as detailed above. Alternatively, drop the chain into a jar of fresh degreaser and shake thoroughly.
- Repeat the shaking process with fresh degreaser until the fluid stays clean. You may need to allow the chain to soak for some time, especially if it’s brand new.
- Replace the degreaser with denatured alcohol and repeat steps 1-3 until the fluid remains clean.
- Hang the chain to dry, or speed up the process with a hair dryer or compressed air.
- Apply your lubricant of choice.
