Strange stuff, this. It's a
grease-like paste in a tube. There were no printed
instructions on this one, so we can only assume that
it's designed to spread on the chain using a brush or
rag.
Elf Moto Chain Paste really needs to be applied on the
inside run of the chain so it will work its way out as the chain spins.
How the paste/grease works its way into the side plates on the chain is
uncertain. It just seems like a lot more work and mess for
questionable results.
Perhaps it actually does a better job at lubricating a
motorcycle chain -- we'll never know. But one thing's for certain:
it's much easier to use a spray.
However, you have to give them credit for trying something
new... After using this product, we wanted to see how other types of
grease might work for motorcycle chain lubrication, so we bought a tub of
Motorex grease and Maxima grease. Neither of these is designed for
lubricating motorcycle chains, but we wanted to explore the concept anyway.
It didn't work.
