Better than WD40

Laminarman · May 5, 2004

I found a product better than WD40 and Liquid Wrench. It's called PB Blaster (Autozone). Man, loosens rusted bolts ten times better.

Thought I'd share.

Have to agree...the stuff is magic.

I tried to loosen a tie rod on my 911 and it would not budge after hitting, banging and a wide assortment of four letter words. Soaked it in PB Blaster for five minutes and it came off with a crescent wrench. The other side didn't budge with LW or WD, and then came off after a PB soak. I'm converted.

Yep, PB Blaster is the stuff. I haven't bought a can of Liquid Wrench since I came across it.

They also make a spray lubricant that has Teflon in it. It leaves blue-grey residue behind after it dries, so you need to be careful where you use it, but I haven't found anything better for getting old stuck locks to work like new. I use it on the cheap locks on my pickup tool box, and the keys slide in like butter.

What's it called, Dave? That sounds like something I could use.

PB Blaster Dry Lube

I may be mistaken about it containing Teflon (PTFE), but I thought it does. Still works great though, whatever it contains.

Kroil is also a very good one but you have to order from Kano labs to get it. They have a lot of different products for almost any application. Kano Labs website
