SMOOVE™ Universal Chain Lube now has a partner – SMOOVE™ PREP Chain Cleaner. You asked and we listened, now, after months of behind the scenes testing and development, we are proud to announce the launch of SMOOVE™ PREP. Think of SMOOVE™ PREP as the conditioner to your shampoo, the milk in your coffee, the seat on your seat post… ok, you get the idea!
We developed SMOOVE™ Universal Chain Lube to be the longest lasting chain lubricant available – and it is – but every now and then, your drivetrain needs some proper cleaning and this is where SMOOVE™ PREP comes in. SMOOVE™ PREP was developed with special “stuff” (read: lots of technical polymer science stuff) that is specifically formulated to clean, dissolve and neutralize SMOOVE™ Universal Chain Lube in just two easy steps. (The fresh natural citrus smell is part of the magic ‘active ingredients’ – our secret!)
USING SMOOVE™ PREP WITH A CHAIN CLEANING DEVICE
Fill the device with approximately 25ml of SMOOVE™ PREP in order to reach the bottom of the brush wheels. The amount of one application is indicated on the side of the bottle. Most chain devices have a ‘fill to’ line, however, we suggest that you ignore this as one application ofSMOOVE™ PREP will be sufficient. Now clip the chain cleaner around the chain as per the manufacturer recommendations. Back pedal until the visible SMOOVE™ chain lube is dissolved and make sure that you tilt the chain device slightly so that the brush rollers can collect the remaining cleaning solution. After removing the chain cleaner, use the remaining amount of SMOOVE™ PREP with a suitable brush to clean the cassette and chain rings. Finally rinse the chain and drivetrain with sufficient clean water using a hose.
DIRECTIONS FOR MANUAL CLEANING.
Pour 25ml of SMOOVE™ PREP in a small bowl. Dip a suitable brush in the solution and scrub the chain and drivetrain components until all visible SMOOVE™ chain lube has been dissolved. Finally rinse the chain and drivetrain with sufficient clean water using a hose.
