Kroil, or maybe Ballistol. I’ve used both with success. The smell of Ballistol attracts women, too. They come in the room and say “what the hell is that smell?”
That’s funny!
I have come to associate the smell of Kroil with the absence of scraped knuckles, the sound of tools not being thrown across the shop, and a lack of swearing.
LOL!! Ballistol smells nasty.. it’s pukeworthy.
I saw this thread earlier tonite.. “Uh-oh... there will be a gazillion replies on this one..”
Kroil is available mail order only, not sold in stores.
Supposedly 50/50 ATF & Acetone works good. I never saw it do anything special but live in the rustbelt. Just about anything is better than WD40. It has its uses, this is not one of them.
As if the missus wasn't already in my hair on this project! LOL
