A chip fat fryer.

putoline motocross chain wax.

smells a bit, so don’t do it in the kitchen or you’ll be making your own tea.

Turn fryer on, make sure wax is melted, insert chain, leave for ten minutes or so, allow chain to drip dry, (and cool down!)

OK I did that. Now how do I get all of this chip fat off my bike chain?

You don'ty actually need the chip fryer although it makes it easier - the putoline tine just goes on the stove.  Follow instructions on the tin
