[TowerTalk] FW: Tests of penetrating oils

[Patrick Greenlee]

I read a report of a test program conducted by the engineering 
department of a university (I can't remember which school) very similar 
in nature to the testing reported in the You Tube video with the 
exception that the acetone and ATF mixed 50-50 was the overall winner 
for performance and price.  I have subsequently used the ATF and acetone 
mixture with great success.  The acetone serves as a carrier to get the 
ATF into the tiny interstitial spaces.

A sealed container is a good idea as the acetone will evaporate during 
storage if not sealed.
