Yes, I won't believe it, unless you post a video. Sorry for the skepticism. sigh Can't do videos. Let me explain the wonderful workings of a Q-Tip. You shake the White Lightning bottle a couple of seconds, spritz the usual dose into a shotglass. Then you dip one side of the Q-Tip into the fluid and gently stroke along 5-7 links of the chain, with slight overlap. Lower run, so the lube goes on the rollers where they run inside. Simultaneously you can hold a piece of folded Kleenex between middle and ring finger that glides along the underside of the chain to catch possible drippings. Repeat that 18-20 times while backpedaling the crank at equal speed. Done. It is advisable not to use a shotglass that is still in use for its intended purpose ... -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ |

snip The actual lube job took less than a minute. Not bad, but lubing with foaming chain lube takes about half that time. |

That seems significantly different than what you described befo "I apply lube to each link using a Q-Tip... [i] dab it on." -- - Frank Krygowski |

snip I didn't know Duct Tape was for cleaning ears. It's too painful :-) It's very good for removing excess ear hair though. And cheaper than waxing at the salon. -- davethedave |

A human finger is capable of going up and down. Even two fingers holding a Q-Tip are. Rat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat, like a machine gun. It's just that after 5-7 links there ain't enough juice left in the Q-Tip to go on. Does it register now? -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ |
