For me the chain comes off every time.
3 jars of white spirit.
Shake the chain in the first, it clears the most dirt. Then into the second jar shake and then finally into the third jar where the white spirit is almost completely clear and the cleanest.
Take the chain out wipe of the excess white spirit and wash in the kitchen sink using soap and water. Wipe dry and sit on the radiator to dry out the inside.
Then once properly dry, a drop of lube on each roller worked into the chain by back pedalling, then wipe all the excess off.
Takes less time than it sounds and my chain always looks like new and lasts for thousands of miles.
