I clean my chain with WD40 and then lube with PJ (blue and yellow can) and
have absolutely NO problems with fling-off. I usually use it liberally too.
But I definitely let it dry (preferably overnight) before I ride. I've
never lost the rear brake either, but sometimes it's hard to 'find' =8o)
What's the difference between the stuff in the blue/yellow can and the
black/yellow can anyway?
