It's the factory grease, and it's good stuff. You don't need to clean
it.

it's actually a thick rust inhibitor for long term
storage... should definitely be removed and lubed with a quality lube
before use, otherwise the stickiness of the inhibitor will result in a
dirty and clogged chain in no time.
