problem with parafin is that it leaves a greasy coating.

Brake cleaner or similar will clean it nicely and evaporate leaving a dry surface.

ie always used parafin to get my chain spotless, then re-lubed it, and i have used it to get the muck off the frame etc.
Another solution, dont so much lube on in the first place!

a bit of lube works a treat but too much and it all starts to get messy and they complain, bikes only like a little bit of lube aswel :D
