I've thought about the gloves, but I just use massive quantities of GoJo
Don't use WD40 as it displaces the grease in the O-Rings. I don't know about Simple Green, but I would say it might do the same thing. You should keep it away from aluminum as it apparently does nasty things.

Probably best to stick with Kerosene or an actual chain cleaning product.
