Dupont Multi-Use Teflon Lube - 30,000km check in

[MaxCannon]

I used to use chainsaw bar oil and a paintbrush.
Very cheap ($10 / litre) and it doesn't fling.

I anyone wants half a bottle of chainsaw bar oil and a ratty old paintbrush it can be picked up from my place.

Prolan medium grade is the go- easily half the price, zero splatter, no chain stretch- and you can use it on any other part of the motorcycle that needs corrosion protection/basic lubing (kickstand, rear brake pivot, etc.) I use Prolan to clean the chain as well. I used to sell Prolan in a shop I was managing, but while I'm no longer in the retail business, I still use Prolan (KIWI MADE!). No need to use the heavy grade for the bike chain, just do two applications of the medium. The medium grade is 40% Lanolin, and 60% is the carrier (which evaporates after 1-2 hours). You can buy direct off their website, or Farmlands. Get the spray can with the blue top, the orange top spray can has a weird angle on it that doesn't work as well on the chain.

The Du Pont product gets rave reviews on a number of American bike websites. On that basis, I went to buy some locally and couldn't find a stockist. Emailed GPI and didn't get a reply. Just by way of comparison, the Motul chain lub I bought at the end of last year was in the upper $20's; forget precisely how much.

Prolan medium grade is the go

I'm using heavy and really like the stuff. Don't think I'd want to go lighter.

PM short-circuit for a better deal or go to Repco if you're desperate.

I've spoken with the team at prolan, and the medium grade is 40% lanolin compared to 80% for the heavy grade, they recommend two coats of the medium grade (letting the first dry for 1-2 hours) to equal the heavy grade. I find the aerosol easier to use then the heavy grade hand spray bottle, mainly due to the pressure of the spray blasting off any crap and assisting in getting a solid application across the chain. Having said that, both work, and both rock!
