I use paraffin for cleaning the chain, but only very sparingly .. as follows.
I have a half inch paintbrush with the bristles cut to half their length, which stiffens them.
I moisten it with paraffin, blot off the excess on a kitchen towel, then clean a small section with that.
Its basically, just enough to soften the chain lube/gunge combo.
Wipe with rag, etc.
I use a DID x-ring chain with a rivet link.
I have lately found myself considering running two chains, swapping them around for cleaning and re-lubing every now and then.
Trouble is, that is only a simple job if I use a split link to join the chain .. and I don't like those on o/x-ring chains.
So I find myself considering running two non o-ring chains and a split link.
A motocross chain, perhaps.
