Reviews
I�ve used this twice since purchasing. It foams up and turns red once applied. It rinses off fairly quickly and both times it eliminated a squeak from my front brakes. I am tired of removing my pads to scrub or sand and this enables me to quickly take care of the city grime while washing my entire bike.
It does smell quite bad, just in case that matters to you. I mostly use Muc-Off products which smell great, so this was jarring to me. But like I said, it seems like it works well and I would say the price is justified since you only need a few sprays per cleaning.
Use this to clean the cassette, chain rings and jockey wheels before going to waxed chain. Spray on, let sit and use a stiff brush. Rinse in water. Repeat and the parts are oil free before going to a waxed chain. It does go from clear to bright red and foam up.
The reviews on Silca's website are true, this stuff works like magic. I do few quick sprays on cassette, rotors, and calipers and let it sit for several minutes. Light brushing on the cassette and then rinse everything with water. Water coming out of the calipers was black. Brakes no longer squeal and cassette is sparkling. Saves way more effort and time over any other cleaning protocol.
The easiest, most effective drive train and brake cleaner I have used. Truly amazing how clean it gets the drive train and how easily, leaving the wax lube untouched. I can clean without worrying about over spray. The best maintenance product I have found for my bike.
