Years ago, while stepfather was stationed at a U. S. Airforce base in
jolly olde England and living in East Ruyslip (sp?), brothers sent me a
tin of chain lube with instructions to heat in oven til soupy and coil
cycle chain and dunk for a minute or two. Remove and hang over tin til
excess ran off.

Worked great. Only remember that the moly-disulfide material cam in a
cookie tin shaped container roughly 12 inch diameter and about six
inches deep. Filled to half-depth material. Said they got it at local
cycle shoppe.
