This one's from Sastard Sr. via the old curmudgeons at CVMG.
Machinist's Workshop magazine tested penetrants for break out torque on rusted nuts with significant results!
They arranged a subjective test of all the popular penetrants with the
control being the torque required to remove the nut from a
"scientifically rusted" environment (obviously a BIG nut!).
Penetrating oil ...... Average torque
None ....................... 516 ft lbs
WD-40 ................... 238 ft lbs
PB Blaster .............. 214 ft lbs
Liquid Wrench ..... 127 ft lbs
Kano Kroil ............. 106 ft lbs
ATF-Acetone mix....53 ft lbs
The ATF-Acetone mix was a "home brew" mix of 50 - 50 automatic
transmission fluid and acetone. Note the "home brew" was better than any
commercial product in this one particular test. Our local machinist group mixed up a batch and we all now use it with equally good results.
I have the muthafukkin mutha load of penetrating solution right here for ya, beeeeeeeeeeeeaich!
