While we are talking tips.. I have a method which makes removing chain lube and other assorted grud from wheels etc.. You will require some mutton cloth, a bucket of hot water, triple wax (or similar) and wd-40....
Wet the rag and then squirt wax on it and mush it around a bit.. then spray a bit of wd-40 on the wheel and use the water/wax cloth to wash wheel... Chain lube comes off easy and the wheel will not only be clean but will shine too, once dried..
