Better Than Liquid Wrench?
« on: April 22, 2013, 08:41:19 PM »
I took a ride to Gilroy, CA (home of the garlic festival) today to check out another restorer's garage. He does roadsters, and does them well. One tip I picked up from him was to make a 50/50 mix of transmission fluid and acetone to use instead of Liquid Wrench, WD-40 or other thread solvents on rusty hardware. Has anyone else heard of this or used this mix?
