For perhaps a dozen years, I was periodically receiving literature from Kano Labs extolling the prowess of Kroil. None of the industrial suppliers with whom I deal ever had the stuff so, I was reluctant to buy an unknown quantity regardless of their claims. I guess their Chinese water torture method of advertising finally bore fruit and about 2 months ago I ordered a gallon. To date, I have yet to experience the form of miraculous unmating of stuck mechanical components which is claimed by Kano Labs. My advise to anyone thinking of sending away for some Kroil: keep the blue flame wrench on pilot and use the shipping cost to buy whatever is on the shelf at your local industrial supply house.
