Default Penetrating fluid test

Alright folks, whether you have an older loved Jag or a newer one...at some point you need to replace those exposed corroded rusted parts. What's the biggest issue, getting those parts apart, especially the nuts.

So this guy took on 2 separate tests of standard and deep penetrating fluids or so called penetrating fluids...even a shot with the fire wrench. This could help you save your money or know where to spend it appropriately. Perhaps you'll be surprised, perhaps you hadn't heard of some of the items (like myself). I'm sure you Euro's have your own recommendations to opine about, so let's hear it.

Offhand I say any oil based application (even motor oil and time) helps some.

Test #1 ...



Test #2 ...
