Silca's Chain Stripper takes the hassle out of preparing your drivetrain for waxing, eliminating the biggest hurdle for cyclists transitioning to a waxed chain. Traditionally, cleaning a new chain for wax adhesion required multiple solvents and rinses. But with Silca Chain Stripper, the process is simplified and optimized. This organic cleaner not only removes factory grease and oils but primes the metal surface for better wax adhesion, making it the world's first wax-optimized chain cleaner.
Silca Chain Stripper's advanced "lift and encapsulate" technology drives out greases and oils, allowing them to be easily rinsed away, ensuring a pristine surface for wax to bond to. The result? A faster, easier chain prep process that improves wax performance and increases longevity.
Two Easy Cleaning Options:
-
Option 1: For hot-melt waxing with Silca's Secret Blend Hot Melt, immerse the chain in Chain Stripper, agitate for 30 seconds, let sit for 5-10 minutes, and agitate again. Rinse with water and drop the chain straight into the hot wax. The water will boil off, and you'll have a fully waxed chain with up to 30% longer lifespan than with traditional methods.
-
Option 2: For drip waxing with Silca's Super Secret Chain Coating, apply one drop of Chain Stripper to each roller while backpedaling. Let it soak for 5 minutes, agitate by backpedaling 10 times, then reapply and allow to sit for 5 more minutes. Rinse with water while backpedaling for at least 10 revolutions.
What is it: Silca Chain Stripper is a highly concentrated, biodegradable degreaser and wax adhesion promoter, offering fast, single-step preparation for waxing factory chains. This innovative formula reduces the time and chemicals needed to prep your chain in under 10 minutes and can even be used for drip wax application directly on the bike.
