frankd Posted March 18, 2013 Share #1 Posted March 18, 2013 Last week I mentioned that I'd read a test of penetrating oils online and it agreed that the ATF/Acetone mix was the best.

etcswjoe Posted March 18, 2013 Share #3 Posted March 18, 2013 I am just curious how they found rusted bolts with the exact same parameters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingy Posted March 18, 2013 Share #4 Posted March 18, 2013 I am just curious how they found rusted bolts with the exact same parameters. I'm glad someone asked that. Was tempted to, but could only guess at what range the replies would have been. Seems like a difficult, repeatable test setup. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyinfool Posted March 18, 2013 Share #5 Posted March 18, 2013 IIRC in the article it did mention that the bolts were "scientifically rusted" to ensure repeatability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
