Review: 3M 4-way Chain Clean Spray and Lubricant

Motorcycle chain clean sprays keep the chain of the motorcycle clean. A clean chain presents a higher ability to retain the lubricant in the O-ring translating to better power delivery to the wheel with the minimum wear of the O-ring.

Motorcyclists have been raving about this new 3M 4-way Chain Spray Lubricant – an O-ring chain clean and lubricant from 3M.

I was curious to find out !!

Our dust-friendly city roads coupled with an overnight rain seemed like the ideal test-bed to test the grit of this chain clean 🙂

Chain Clean Test Conditions Overview:

  • Motorcycle – 2012 Hero Impulse
  • Distance covered on dirt-friendly dry + wet roads– 200kms
  • Riding Mode – Hard 😛
  • Territory– City

I finally ended up with a chain which looked like this!!

After the cleaning:

The 3M chain clean is an awesome product , made to take on the super-dusty city roads and highways; performs well on the occasional off-roading.

One of the best aspects – it is a Chain clean and lubricant which means, one can ride for about 100kms without lubing the chain separately.

All this at just INR 205 for 325g of this can.

Thank you 3M for this wonderful product !!

    Recomended to apply Wet Sprayable Grease before you roll the bike on road…. Just 4 Way Lubricant would not help.

      Thanks Venkat Sir, I have not yet tried the Wet Sprayable grease, currently using a Chain lube on another reputed brand. Will try it once this is over 🙂

    Agree. 3M cleaner and spray-able wet grease combination is a must have!

    Chain Grease is used in lubrication of intricate parts of chains in cycles or motor cycles. Though several mechanics in regular workshops use ordinary greases for lubrication of chains, this application may not provide suitable lubricating solution for the chains.

        Hey Phaneesh – this is mainly for O-ring chains – I am not sure what kind of chain the Yamaha RX motorcycles have, so please check and proceed…
