Title: Belt Dressing Post by ThumperPaul on 07/03/24 at 05:41:32 Does anyone use belt dressing on their belt? Aside from maintaining correct belt tension, how do you maintain your belt? I thought about this yesterday when I was lubing and adjusting the chain on my other bike. I’ve read not to use many of the products on the market as they contain petro-based ingredients that can cause premature aging. That’s exactly what I don’t want. I don’t have a squeaky belt, but I’d like to ensure maximum life out of the belt. I’ve read a food-grade silicone product like this one may be a good choice as a belt dressing. Thoughts? https://www.webstaurantstore.com/noble-chemical-lubriquik-11-oz-food-grade-aerosol-si-dry-silicone-lubricant-amr-a329/999LUBRIQUIK.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=GoogleShopping&gclid=Cj0KCQjw7ZO0BhDYARIsAFttkCjRJs6nFTUzyh8Znp-KXsRgdMYGg1Zf2rqRtty_FhW7eBcBo5TfdoQaAgOcEALw_wcB |
