The subject of penetrating oil comes up quite often on stovebolt.com. There is a DYI penetrating oil that has tested
better than most of the over the counter oils. It is a mixture of 50/50 ATF and Acetone.
As I am running low on Liquid Wrench, I did some modest research, and bought some Kroil, which seems to get better, more
enthusiastic reviews. Haven't had occasion to use it yet.
The problem as I have heard it with WD-40 is Paraffin.
And the problem with the word 'paraffin' on this international list, is that it refers to quite different things in
various parts of the world. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraffin>
I'm not sure that covers it all, either.
