I heard about this too and have been meaning to try some.

One other thing I
didn't mention is being able to use a hammer and punch, etc on the flats of
the stuck bolt to hit it straight on and let the shock break the bond.
Again,
using plenty of penetrating whatever again and again.  For some bolts, it
helps to scrape or clean the grime or loose rust away to allow better
penetration.
