I learned something today: Dish detergent won't cut it to clean your chain. I ran it through about 4 times with two different detergents and got murky water. Then I sprayed some finish line degreaser on the chain and ran plain water: Black.
The lesson: Clean your dishes with chain degreaser. That'll take off that stuck on grease :).
Warning: It burns.
