Would not be too sure about using the wire brush....

For fear of damaging the rubber rings in between the links..

Not a lot, I have used both......

good link WB. I'm ordering 1 today. Good question on wd-40 and kerosene?

 

[DAZZ]

But I think the most important thing you use is the type of brush..

The wrong one may damage the chain...

Good one Dave..

Kerosene and a tooth brush. I put Kerosene into a spray bottle and spray the chain 10 links at a time...I scrub a dub dub and then spray the area with kerosene again...rinsing off all debris, dirt, oil and grease. The chain shines marvelously. I then take if for a spin to heat the chain and then lube it while hot.

Then I floss the chain....

Boy you really must plan to saw on that chain if you're worried about getting brisells in deep enough to hurt the Orings.......done it for years.....never a problem...But then again...after the stock chain is gone. I don't run O ring chains.

Simple Green of all things works real well, smells good + won't damage the o-rings.
