I sure do. Busted knuckles, bloody forearms, and headaches up the wazoo .

Came across this from a coworker and thought it might be helpful. I've yet to try it out...

*********************************
"The April/May 2007 edition of Machinist's Workshop did a test of penetrating oils where they measured the force required to loosen rusty test devices. Buy the issue if you want to see how they did the test. The results reported were interesting. The lower the number of pounds the better. Mighty interesting results for simple acetone and tranny fluid!

Penetrating oil . Average load .. Price per fluid ounce
None ................. 516 pounds .
WD-40 .............. 238 pounds .. $0.25
PB Blaster ......... 214 pounds .. $0.35
Liquid Wrench ... 127 pounds .. $0.21
Kano Kroil ........ 106 pounds .. $0.75
ATF-Acetone mix.. 53 pounds .. $0.10

The ATF-Acetone mix was a 50/50 mix (1 to 1 ratio)."

 

Thats pretty neat. I like liquid wrench, but found BG products.. IN-FORCE to be superior... Ill have to give a try on the acetone. atf mix... who thought of that?? Good find...

 

That's awesome! I'll have try that out when I change all my bushings.

 

I'm a fan of PB blaster myself.

 

Kroil is the shiznit. It is so the bestest that would use it as a sex lube except it melts skin.

 

I agree on Kroil, its prolly the best stuff Ive used.

 

As a desk jockey I don't mind the extra effort involved by using PB Blaster.

 

Where to get acetone? What is it?

 

really?

Klean Strip at Lowe's: Gallon Acetone

 

You have to have a hazmat endorsement on your license to transport it. It's available where they sell the industrial strength pesiticides and such.








It's ******* nail polish remover. Good grief.

 

Interesting... I have some ATF/Acetone that I use as a gun cleaner that my neighbor gave me. Have to try it out on the rusted crap.

 

I thought it sounded familiar...lol...

 

you get it at beauty supply stores.
