What's you favorite penetrating oil?
Mine has been "CRC 556" industrial sales only.
Many (many) years ago there was a better one but can't remember the name
anymore and believe it not marketed anymore, something like "Kraco" or
"Koto" ? Any ever heard of it?
Haven't been doing any real hard jobs for some years now and don't need
anything much stronger than the cheap WD40 or Liquid Wrench, but know there
are better ones out there.
