Yup, I'm back with another mind boggling question. I thought of this the other day: Instead of using the special "chain cleaner", wouldn't it be okay to use regular brake cleaner you can buy at Pep Boys / AutoZone, etc... instead? If you look at it, "chain cleaners" at $8 / can is suppose to clean chains of grease, old lube, dirt, etc... while being safe for the rubbers near the chains. But regular brake cleaners at $2.50 / can were also made to clean off grease, dirt, etc... while being rubber safe since it may come in contact with the rubber o-rings of the pistons in the calipers. So, wouldn't it be reasonable to think that brake cleaners are actually safer (not to mention cheaper) to use since they were made to come in contact with rubber that's more critical?
Any thoughts? Like to hear it.
