This second generation, environmentally friendly degreaser dissolves oil and grease gunk and frees sticky, gummed up parts without damaging seals. Less aggressive than citrus degreasers, easily cleans delicate components; will not attack elastomers, rubber seals, O-rings or plastic components. Approved for use on Grip Shift(R), including Polycarbonate X-Ray(TM) models; will not affect Shimano(R) seals even when soaked in a tank. Fully biodegradable; exceeds all V.O.C. and California CARB regulations; contains no citrus, glycol ether, alcohol distillates, phosphates or water. 12 oz. aerosol for maximum penetrations.
Weaknesses: Packaged in giant tin can, hard to measure amounts for mixing proper portions.
Bottom Line:
Just used today with nothing to compare it to, but damn it smells good! Put chain in an empty tin can with 5 parts water and 1 part Biodegreaser and the chain came out looking shiny w/ little to no effort. Probably works best with some brushing equipment or an actual chain cleaning device.
