Completely strip and prep your chain for wax in 10 minutes. Submerge the chain or even just drip it on the chain, rinse, and apply super secret.

Take all the work and harsh chemicals out of chain waxing.

Far and away, the largest hurdle for people converting to a waxed drivetrain has always been the need to completely strip the factory lubricant from the chain in order for the wax to properly adhere.

Traditional methods have involved using 2-3 different solvents and rinse steps, moving from non-polar solvents that thin greases and oils to progressively more polar solvents that evaporate quickly to eliminate residues.

For the design of SILCA Chain Stripper, we started from the end and worked backwards, identifying chemicals which drive out greases and oils while promoting wax adhesion to metal.

The result is an organic cleaner that lifts and encapsulates greases and oils allowing them to easily be rinsed away from the metal surface.

The result is the world's first wax optimised chain cleaner which not only removes greases and oils, but actually primes the metal surface for improved adhesion from wax lubricants.

The aggressive 'lift and encapsulate' action of SILCA chain stripper allows for 2 quick and easy cleaning options.

Option 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.

Option 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.

What is it

SILCA Chain Stripper is a highly concentrated, biodegradable degreaser combined with a wax adhesion promoter (primer) which allows for fast, single step preparation of factory chains for waxing while also improving wax adhesion and increasing longevity.

SILCA Chain Stripper reduces the time and number of chemicals required to properly prep a factory greased chain to less than 10 minutes and can even be used to prepare chains on bicycle for drip wax application.

The only thing that works for me
Size: 50 count (Pack of 1)
I love these face wipes so much. I cannot use soap due to all the problems I have with my skin. It's so finicky.. I have rosacea with painful P&P and also flare ups of adult acne. I take a med to keep my oil production under control, but that means I end up with a few flakey patches on my cheeks. These are the ONLY face wipes that I've found that not only remove almost all (more on that in a moment) of the makeup I'm wearing, but also seem to help keep my redness under control. I've tried Aveeno Ultra-Calming wipes which profess to help with redness and even those are way too harsh for my skin. The Aveeno wipes make my face sting horrible, leave a greasy residue, and have a smell that is not very pleasant. The Simple wipes take off WAY more makeup than those, or any other wipe, I've tried and leave my skin feeling actually clean and calm. The only routine that I've found that keeps my skin looking decent is to use these to remove the majority of my makeup and then follow up with Simple Micellar Water on a cotton pad to remove any further traces. I follow that up with a few spritzes of (rosewater is supposed to help with redness too) and then moisturize with - which doesn't have SPF (which makes my rosacea flare up). It sounds like a lot of steps, but it takes me 3 minutes, tops. I'd just like to add too for those saying that these don't remove waterproof mascara - well, yeah. I would want neither a "gentle" face wipe that was harsh enough to remove waterproof mascara, nor a mascara that was wimpy enough to be removed with a gentle wipe... that would mean it would also come off every time my eyes watered or even just blinked. Just use an oil-free eye makeup remover before using these.

Work well, no bad skin reactions
Size: 50 count (Pack of 1), Size: 50 count (Pack of 1)
I can't believe what a great deal these are! It's less than $7 (as an add-on buy) for two packets. I had already bought this brand once before so I knew they'd work for me. They remove make-up pretty well. I don't think they are the very best of all time, but they are up there with the other brands I've tried. This product states that it has no artificial dyes or perfumes. These points are really important. Any fragrance that is added to beauty products can irritate your skin, which has happened to me in the past. I do detect the slightest scent, though. It's actually rather pleasant. I think there's still a slight residue of mascara left over after using the wipes pretty thoroughly, so I only gave them 4 stars. Your experience may differ as the packaging promises to remove all makeup residue. Maybe I'm not using them properly? I have very sensitive skin and I didn't break out or otherwise react poorly to these. They do the job as well as I think can be expected for facial wipes so I bought them again. I really hope the claims to being simply formulated are true. I have a healthy scepticism of the beauty industry. My experience with these wipes has been positive so I will take it on faith that they live up to their advertising as far as having no unnecessary additives. One more thing: I like the idea of the added vitamins. It always cracks me up when facial cleansers advertise the addition of helpful vitamins. How can they help when you're immediately rinsing them back off your face? The addition of any vitamins to regular liquid cleansers is just a waste. They do nothing for you. That being said, when they are added to facial wipes, they are spread on your skin and stay there, since you don't generally rinse after using wipes. In this way of cleaning, you may actually be reaping some benefit from the added vitamins.
