Silca Chain Stripper 473ml

Easily prep your chain for waxing in 10 minutes. Immerse or drip on, rinse, and apply super secret.

Eliminate labor and harsh chemicals from waxing.

The main challenge in transitioning to a waxed drivetrain has been removing factory lubricant for proper wax adhesion.

Traditional methods use multiple solvents and rinse steps, progressing from thinning greases to fast-evaporating solvents.

SILCA Chain Stripper was designed to lift and encapsulate grease and oil, priming the metal for wax lubricants.

The result is the world's first wax-optimized chain cleaner, boosting adhesion.

Two easy cleaning options with SILCA chain stripper:

Method 1:

For hot-melt waxing a new, factory chain with SILCA Secret Blend Hot Melt, simply immerse the chain in the Stripper and agitate 30 seconds.

Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes and agitate again for 30 seconds.

Remove the chain from the Stripper and rinse with water and then drop the chain directly into the hot wax, the water will boil off within a few minutes and the chain will be fully waxed with up to 30% longer application life than a chain cleaned by traditional methods.

Method 2:

For drip applied waxing of a new or nearly new chain with SILCA Super Secret without removing the chain from the bicycle.

Apply 1 drop of SILCA Chain Stripper to each roller of the chain while backpedalling.

Allow to soak for 5 minutes.

Backpedal 10 revolutions of the crank to agitate cleaner and re-apply 1 drop per roller allowing to sit for 5 more minutes.

Rinse with clean water while backpedalling at least 10 revolutions.
