I did basically the same thing when I changed out my rear sprocket. WD-40 is sometimes referred to as denatured kerosene. Whatever, I don't know, but I do know it's kind of expensive for cleaning purposes. I used what a friend of mine has used in his solvent tank for years. It works well for cleaning, isn't as harsh as other products and leaves an oily film on things I've cleaned with it. Oh, yes it's also available EVERYWHERE. Go to the gas (or petrol if you prefer) station and buy a gallon of diesel! Cheap (well until the oil companies figured out how to stick it to us) easy to find and much safer than using many other products. I soaked the chain in a pail for a while then got out the tooth brush, then wiped it dry with a rag. Looked like new!
