I clean with kerosene and lube with 80W90 Gear oil. I've tried two kinds of expensive spray chain lube and didn't like it. It's messy and difficult to apply. It's also harder to clean off the chain.

Gear Oil costs $2.50 per quart (32oz). Spray chain lube costs $8.95 for 13oz.

I had one chain with a couple of sticky links. The spray stuff wouldn't loosen it up. 24 hours after applying gear oil the links were nice and loose.

Spray lube I have used: PJ1 Blue Label and Maxima Chain Guard.
