No, I have a guy that rebuilds cylinders for me. That's one thing I leave to the pro's.OK I get it. As long as you can get the cap end free, could you rebuild the cylinder without removing the rod end from the machine?
'decades ago' might be considered old news. There are new products. Suggest checking out some reviews such asPopular Science Magazine did a review on penetrating oils a couple of decades ago.
