New guy question about unhooking implements.

You can make your own version of Fluid Film with some pure, unscented liquid lanolin, a spray bottle and 99% isopropyl alcohol.

A solution of 1 part liquid lanolin and 4 to 5 parts parts 99% isopropyl alcohol (4 oz of liquid lanolin to16 - 20 oz of isopropyl) works well. When mixing you may find that the lanolin mixes better if you warm both the alcohol and lanolin in a bath of warm water to about 105 - 110 degrees F before mixing. DO NOT WARM EITHER OF THEM OVER AN OPEN FLAME! Once the solutions are warm, pour together, mix thoroughly, allow the mix to cool (mix occasionally as it cools) and store in an air tight container to prevent water from being absorbed by the isopropyl.

$10/can at Lowes.

Good info, I'd always greased my PTO shafts but as others noted they kind of gunk up and get hard to move.

What dept would it be in? I took a quick look around our store and didn't see it.

It was located near the tool department in my local Lowes, on shelves also containing PB Blaster, WD 40, etc.
