Pour half into a plastic container/bottom of bucket and enough water just to cover the chainring.
Use a set of tongues or rubbergloves to place in .. then keep checking every 30seconds,, should be done in 2mins.

easy

JTR swears by Caustic aswell doesn't he Lee

not used it myself

I have used oven pride though and think on some items its been a little tame  ???
and needed persuasion

buzzlightyear05:
I turned a new school stem from gold to nice polished silver yesterday it comes of alot easier then it does on os stuff. Oven pride is alot safer than caustic imo.

rakas17:
oven pride, its like it was made for it.  did som ebits the other day and they came out perfect.

scary_leary:
Oh yeah "caustic soda"  :-[

Ive used both .. just found caustic cheaper n easier.

stuntmaster:
also use caustic soda outside and don`t leave what you are doing in it too long as will destroy it , i normally stick stuff in a bucket and then use a cloth to clean colour off straight after
