Paraffin is my new favourite substance.. in the world! PICS!
My bike has never been so clean.... EVER. paraffin is the most amazing shit. Using household cleeaner and dish washing liquid I used to break a sweat for 45 mins and hardly clean the rims for shit!. Now in 10 minutes with some paraffin in a little container and a paintbrush they're cleaner than they've ever been.
I didn't go nuts, i just did a 80-90% job.
hmmmm, time for a ride! :D

when I was a kid, my old man had a paraffin heater in his greenhouse. The paraffin was always blue and stunk! I recently got a gallon from B&Q (£six pound bleedin fifty, robbing gits!) this stuff is nearly clear and doesnt smell at al,l still works just as good.

make sure to rinse with plenty of water afterwards and it will be fine
