[TowerTalk] WD-40

[Don W7WLL]

Forget the ATF, use vegetable oil. And you don't need 50 percent acetone, 
try 30. I followed the formula in the Drexel U lab experiment and it worked 
great on a big hinge tower bolt/nut that was horribly rusted.

Acetone is an obscenely flammable liquid so be extremely careful with it
