Cleaning years of resin off chainsaw bars.

Bug spray? For me, I just spray EVERYTHING on my saws off with the air compressor every week and I also spray WD-40 on everything that might have bio oil on it before I blow. I like Stihl Bio Plus for my carving saws, as well as sometimes cutting firewood. When I store my saws longer than a month, I let the saw idle with the clutch cover off as I let Stihl Premium oil run through and get rid of the bio stuff before cleaning. I also leave the oil tank full of Premium bar and chain oil. I like Bio Plus bar and chain oil when A LOT of oil may spray at me like when carving.

As you can see from some of the posts, people get a bit wiggy when they applying things like gasoline, WD-40, other petroleum based products. Bug spray removes pine sap from my arms at the end of the day and it's non toxic. It also works on removing sap and residue from metal parts.
