LOL....Adman by day....Penthouse Letter writer on the side....the fine print is the deal killer tho'....

red knob...wtf :D?

I don't care about all those penentrant shoot outs , I still use WD 40 daily . Love the stuff . I have not really noticed any real performance difference between it and PB, or Kroil etc....
Of course, I go right for the smoke wrench once I find something really stuck .

Someone did an experiment with all the lubes.
The WD-40 Specialist (not the regular stuff) performed very well.

Results of gun care product evaluation

The main consideration for car nuts is penatrive capability. Who cares what it smells like if it gets the bolt undone.Copper grease applied when re-assembling prevents a future problem.

I like WD 40 but was always partial to CRC penetrating oil. Another cool product (not so much for its penetrating ability but more as a lubricant) is Wurth HHS 2000. It sprays out real liquidy and then starts to thicken up after a minute or so. It has the ability to run down in to tight spots (door hinges and stuff) and then thicken up and remain in there. I like it.

S'ok! penetrating oil was my main go to, but now it is a 50/50 solution of acetone and ATF.. WD40 for the light duty things like door hinges.

If you ever have to replace the bearings on a farm disc some day, you'll appreciate Kroil, mapp gas or oxy aceltylene torch, and a huge impact wrench. It seems that every tome I do that job it's like starting from scratch. Each nut is super rusted. Unless you have a bucket of new bolts, it's not like you can just cut them off.

Weird ad btw. Not really funny as much as like wtf?

I thought it was funny, definitely from a different time. I like WD40 and still use it almost every time I use tools because it is such a great solvent, i.e. it cleans things like nothing else. You spray it on old threads before re-assembling something and it cleans them as well as leaves just the right super-thin film on them.

I think that it's a genius formulation but of course I have every other spray lubricant on earth as well. "Better living through chemistry." One of my other favorites is good old 3-in-1 penetrating oil for threads, it's also a perfect formulation, the consistency of water.
