How to clean and maintain non-standard chains?

How to clean and maintain the special-shaped chain usually starts with the following points:
1. Do not use strong acid or strong alkaline cleaners (such as rust remover), as these chemicals may damage or even crack the chain.
2. Do not use a chain washer with added solvent to clean the chain, this cleaning method will definitely damage the chain.
3. Prevent the use of organic solvents such as stain removal oil, which will not only damage the environment but also wash off the lubricating oil in the bearing parts.
4. Clean your chain after every ride, especially in rainy and wet conditions.
5. Be careful to clean the chain and its accessories with a dry cloth.
6. If necessary, use an old toothbrush to clean the gaps between the chains.
7. Also don't forget to clean the front derailleur and rear derailleur pulley.
8. Use a brush to remove the sand and dirt accumulated between the chains, and if necessary, assist with warm soapy water.
