*Donno about Gibbs but some magazine recently ran a test of all available penetrants including "Kroil and "Blaster" . . Kroil was best but ALL were beaten by the homemade combination of 50-50 acetone

Went and did more Googling for you. Supposedly, the test was the load needed to remove a dowel pin, put finger-tight in a cold-rolled low-carbon-steel bar before corrosion. __________________________

I'm a long time, highly satisfied user of Kano Labs (Kroil) products. Does anyone know if the 50/50 Acetone/ATF mix dissolves rust well. That is one of the things that makes Kano products so good. Ja

When I bought my Kroil, it came with a "kroiler", which was their name for a metal pump can. I guess they made sure that it's compatible. _______________________________________________ Support Team.

Rather then Mega Pen. I'll start using ATF/acetone although, considering the convenience of a factory packed spray can I may pick up a can of Kroil. Looking at the Kano web site, if you buy a can you

Those are pretty meaningless test results. Even if you accept the methodology as valid (which I don't), it's not clear that's what's being measured is the penetrating ability, as opposed to the lubri
