Soak a spot about the size of a 50 cent piece on a high nap washcloth and hold it against the chain while you not too slowly rotate the drive train. Capillary action will take the pro link tight into the chain pins and rollers. This is quick, neat, easy and really gets it in there. Uses way less fluid, too. I wet the washcloth twice to do a 2X recumbent chain. bk
