I had one of those plastic chain cleaners early on. It really only cleaned the surface. When I was seriously cycling (80-150 miles per week), as I said above, I would remove my chain, rear and front sprockets and drive train and clean it in an ultrasonic tank, every Friday night. If it rained, I would do it Saturday and/or Sunday night too. I'd remount everything and lubricate each link, individually. I had it down to less than an hour of work each week. I had a "go/no-go" measuring tool for chain stretch and would replace at 1/2 stretch. I'm a lower rpm "masher" and this is hard on chains.
