"Tool in a Can"

[ServiceWithIntegrity]

I was just curious as to what everyone's favorite aerosol shop lubricant is.
Of everything i've tried (i.e. Wd-40, Liquid Wrench, Zep 45, Royal Purple Max-Film, Tri-Flow), i like Pro-Long SPL 100 the best.

 

[american lockpicker]

I like Rem-Oil and Kroil.

 

[Even 11]

PB Blaster

 

[Dwyer77]

Kroil for sure

 

[tyreguy25]

We have used Twister, Myers Penetrating Lubricant, WD-40, P.B. B'laster (my favorite) and a slew of others.

kroil.........

 

[MrMark]

Wurth hhs-2000 or Boeshield.

He asked about lubricants. Everyone is listing penetrants.

For that I have liquid wrench and Rost Off. Very seldom need it though.

 

[Jack Olsen]

I like Kroil. Aero-kroil or Sili-kroil.

It kreeps.

 

[g0ldfing3r]

Kroil for me

 

[flathead74]

I vote for Kroil.

 

[aspera]

Kroil. No wait, Pjur. No wait, you said aerosol. I dunno.

 

[Bigpigdave]

I like PB Blaster and Aero-Kroil. Both work great.

[Fudog]

Definately Aerokroil or Silikroil.

 

[Jim C.]

I've had success getting frozen/rusted nuts and bolts apart with Kroil. WD-40 and Liquid Wrench, are good for the light stuff like a squeaky hinge.

 

[mrholeshot]

PB Blaster and Astroglide

 

[alpha property]

Fluid Film is by far the best there is, its Food grade, organic and soaks into metal to prevent rusting aswell as releasing it. It works awsome to spray under the decks of lawn mowers to prevent grass from sticking and rusting and on snow plow blades to keep snow from sticking while plowing

 

[lipadj46]

Kroil smells the best by far.

Edit: and I would like to nominate this post for the most ********** title of the year

[Brandon_Lutz]

For a penetrating oil I like PB blaster. For a lubricant I like Jigaloo.

pb, lubriplate - wait that doesn't come in an aerosol can, some dupont teflon. most of the other lubes i use don't come in cans, mb spec greases, volvo greases, synth. goops - are all in tubes/bottles...

 

[littlekillertoad]

I use wd-40 mostly because it's what I've got laying around.

 

[xstubsx]

zep 45 smells yummies

 

[atari]

PB-Blaster.

 

[Soon2AdjustYou]

Fuchs red lithium grease

[mickeyone]

aerokroil silkroil anything from kano labs

 

[sberry]

I use Liquid wrench mostly these days primarily due to cost/loss or damaged cans. I really liked Kroil but they messed with the can, for me I like to squeeze a bit out, don't want a gusher and the old cans used to work to the last drop but last few I bought the can failed before the product was used. Liq Wrench about 2.25 a can, bought some PB for 3 the other day and some stuff at ag store called super penetrating oil that worked well. I use a fair amount, back in the day used bulk but thats messy anymore, use maybe 30 cans a year. We spray almost every bolt we install.

 

[Dewaynep]

Easy, PB-Blaster.

 

[corvairdad]

Seafoam's DeepCreep

 

[rquackenbush]

I have used the Teflon / Silicone spray on just about anything. It's magic.

 

[bill300d]

For a penetrating oil I like PB blaster. For lubrication i like zep2000

 

[mazdarules]

ACF-50 is the best stuff.

[Old Donn]

Lube, WD-40. Penetrating, Kroil.

 

[kc-steve]

Some guys mentioned they liked the smell of some lubricants . . . although it's not an aerosol, I use Tri-Flow Superior Lubricant on bicycle cables and other things. It smells like bananas.

It is the best for bicycle brake and shifter cables.

[dieseltech]

fluid film gets my vote

 

[handyvorb]

We use Wurth Rost Off Extra at the VW/Audi dealer.

wait, what's better PBlaster or Kroil? Or are they the same.

I've never had much luck with PB Blaster
