This is from an article that I found.

The April/May 2007 edition of Machinist's Workshop did atest of penetrating oils where they measured the force required to loosen rustytest devices. The lower the number of pounds the better. Mighty interestingresults for simple acetone and tranny fluid!

Penetrating oil . Averageload ..

None ................. 516 pounds ..

WD-40 .............. 238pounds ..

PB Blaster ......... 214pounds ..

Liquid Wrench ... 127pounds ..

Kano Kroil ......... 106pounds ..

ATF-Acetone mix.. 53pounds

The ATF-Acetone mix was a 50/50 mix (1 to 1 ratio).
