I tried cleaning some greasey grimed ol' Campy chainrings, today. I began w/ WD-40 But, It's been reformulated and rendered useless on serious gunk, along with other once proud over-the-counter brake parts cleaners and engine cleaners.
Are there any effective solvents still available in these environmentally friendly modern times? Can anyone recommend something from the cleaning isles of 2005 department or auto parts stores? Or elsewhere? I found a citrus solvent a few years ago. I think it was called "Xenox." The stuff worked almost instantly. It cleared sinuses, too. Unfortunately, it was taken off the shelves a few months later.
