The value of liquid wrench is going up as we speak

Also, worth mentioning is to heat the nut and not the bolt. The idea being that the circumference of the nut will increase and separate from the bolt and break the 'seal' formed by the rust/etc. Yes, the bolt will get hot and expand as well, so if you've never done it before, heat the nut for a bit and then try to remove it. Lather, rinse, repeat.

I wouldn't contradict your experience that it works better as im not a mechanic, but the explanation confuses me. When you heat a metal, for example a nut, it expands in all directions, ie. it increases in volume. So the outside dimension increases in "radius" and the inside shrinks in radius. When the bolt gets hot it just gets bigger. The final effect is that the brittle rust gets squished between the surfaces and breaks its adhesion to the metal loosening the bolt after it cools again and all the surfaces shrink again. Does that make sense? Or do I have it wrong?

Time to rebuild from new. The other thing to consider is that the strength of a say steel rod/bar/etc. degrades exponentially depending on the integrity of the initial material. As a simple example (and if I recall correctly) a 1/2 inch rod with 1/16 inch off corrosion will have a non-linear reduction in "strength" (shear, tension, torsion, etc.) This is important for many reasons not least of which is if one has a torque rating on a bolt and wants to mount a new nut, or of that works, whether or not that bolt/nut will hold up under required conditions. etc. etc. etc. etc

I've also used it to lubricate turntable parts, too. The dropper bottle comes in quite handy for finer applications like that.

I enjoy watching your videos for numerous reasons. I'm a mechanic & have been almost all my life & there are many methods to removing frozen or rusted hardware. ( 1 ) PB Blaster is JUNK & the product often runs out of Aresol leaving over a 1/4 remaining in the can. RESOLVE: I use a AC puncture handle & empty the remainder into a spray bottle. ( 2 ) WD40 is JUNK- Over time if you do a test, you'll find that the surface of the stuck / rusted whatever will get much worse, especially if left out in the elements. RESOLVE: Don't waste your money! ( 3 ) Gasoila - Works great but only if you have time & soak the problem repeatedly, that's with most other products. ( 4 ) FreeAll - I've used it a few times but it's VERY expensive & honestly doesn't provide a value at all. ( 5 ) Liquid Wrench - In my opinion & the millions of time I've used it is MUCH BETTER than all the other brands. As for the cost, it depends on where you can get it. I've found with most that if you have time & consistantly keep soaking it that almost any product is better than none. The conditions & temperatures & exposure all play a part in the demise as well.

Excellent video....as always. Thank you. I used to use WD 40, then Liquid Wrench, then ordinary gun oil/cleaner. Honestly, none of these things seemed to work for me. Finally, while I was in a small engine repair shop one of the mechanics told me about PB Blaster....he said it was the best he had found. So, I immediately went and bought some PB Blaster, took it home, and applied it to the stuck bolt in the aluminum trans case of by pos John Deere riding mower. After an hour I tried to loosen the stuck bolt....nothing. I sprayed again, waited another hour....nothing. Finally, I gave up, sprayed the stuck bolt again, and let it sit over night. So, the next day, just before I was going to light the fuse to the stick of dynamite I had waiting for the JD, I decided to try to loosen the stuck bolt one final time. Amazingly, as soon as I put the socket to the bolt, it simply turned....and was loose. The clouds parted, a bright beam of sunlight shone down, and the nearly departed pos John Deere mower had "new life"....and a new name...."Lazarus". So, I have been using PB Blaster all these years since then and, of the products I have tried, I highly recommend the PB Blaster over any others I have used

Try two old tricks I was shown 35 years ago by a old timer(60+). 1)Shock(hammer) the plate or parts next to the bolt. Use brass/lead hammer or pad it with a peace of soft wood. 2 or 3 good firm stikes. Works great, no chemicals spills to remove. 2) Tighten the bolt slightly. 1/8 turn or so. It breaks the rust and does not start the removal of the bolt with pushing the rust into the threads. I use these so often a young guy at work thinks I can't hammer and forget the direction to turn the bolts. I love removing bolt he gave up on, right in front of him. I have shown him and explained the theory behind them.

I've never had alot of luck with penetrating oils for stuck and rusted fasteners, I prefer kroil though for lubricating everything else, especially any kind of hinge, pivot point or mechanism. Seems to last the longest and do a better job loosening sticky joints. And I've tried all the ones you tested out here, but liquid wrench I always thought was a pretty good alternative which you proved here.

As a former millwright there is one tried and true that you did not use, the hammer! The old adage of it that don’t work get a bigger hammer (there is a modicum of truth to that). If you whack on a rusted up bolt or nut a few times you will always loosen it up a bit! That’s why impacts work soo well! You came up with the same results as old uncle bumblefuck did! AVE!!!

Project farm: yes very true, if you read my other comment on here you will see I never mention the hammer method, but yes in some applications just the good old beat the tar out of it a bit can work wonders, also if you hold one hammer on the back side of the stuborn nut as an anvil then smack the other side of the nut with a different hammer sometimes is even more effective yet (transmits more of the force and vibrations directly into the nut so it would seem), or another trick is to concentrate the hammers force by using a metal cutting chisle to really concentrate the force of the hammer in a very small area on the side of the nut, this will cause the nut to be mechanically expanded ever so slightly and many times be rather easy to remove after doing so, you just need to not mess up the fastener to the point where a wrench will no longer fit it, anyhow good luck on those stuborn fastners my friend lol.

Great testing procedure! I usually choose WD40, but partly because of their convenient spraying mechanism. I will give liquid wrench another try. For me, unscrewing past the remaining rusty threads, like on suspension components, is as important as breaking loose. Recently, on a very stubborn furnace part, I used a torch, and touched the hot metal with candle wax, which spread like penetrant. It was a bit smokey, but I had an exhaust fan. I felt very fortunate to have saved some badly frozen, threaded steel tubes.

I'm in my 60's, and my dad was using Liquid Wrench when I was a little kid, so it has been around a long time. I have used other stuff over the years, but never found anything that work as well - and so consistently, as the original Liquid Wrench.

This is probably the best product review channel on the internet. I refer many people that are looking to buy products to your channel - let the data speak for itself. WRT the penetrating fluids, I have used Liquid Wrench, Kroil, Sea Foam and PB Blaster - none of them work. Heat, when I can use it, is my best friend. Because of a dry rotted tire, I recently had to remove a wheel on one of my trailers and the nuts were rusted. The wheels hadn't been removed in 30 years. I tried all of my leftover cans of penetrating fluids and none of them worked. I applied them to the lug nuts every day for one week and still had to use a breaker bar. Upon inspection, I observed that the fluid did not penetrate past the first thread or two. I have several cans of chemicals if someone wants to stop by and pick them up!

Thank you for all your testing and excellent reviews. I immensely enjoy your videos and recommendations. Being a retired merchant marine engineer, we have had plenty of exposure with rusty fasteners on sea going ships. One of the major enemies to seafaring ships are salt water and sea spray. At one time or another we have used all the penetrants you have tested in your video (except the home brew). The top two we found to be most successful was the Kroil and the PB Blaster. The Kroil we would get in one gallon cans the PB Blaster in 5 gallon cans. The most unique thing we found with Kroil and PB Blaster was its effectiveness was almost immediately where as for the others they required a soak time.

Interesting. Over the past 50 plus years I've used most of those at one time or another plus Marvel Mystery Oil which has perfomed well on steel to steel applications but for freeing up disimilar metals I've had the best results from Kroil by far. Years ago I had a steel fitting that was seized in a very rare aluminum intake manifold and had about given up hope of getting it out. I ahd tried PB Blaster, WD-40, MMO, etc. with no luck. I took it to my buddy's repair shop , he walked over to his tool box and came back with this beat up old can and sprayed around the fitting. He then went to the fridge and came back with 2 beers and told me to have a seat. We finished the beers and he got up and clamped the fitting in the vice and told me to pull on the manifold, there was a split second of resistance and then it broke free and came right out. That was my introduction to Kroil, i bught my own can that same day and have kept it on hand ever since.

I keep almost all of these around. I've found that none of them seem to be a one size fits all solution. I also like Permetex Liquid Penetrant. When I have a nut that won't break loose after a quick spritz of PB Blaster (the cheapest these days), I pull out the rest and start spraying away.

I was surprised at the results. Last week I spent 7 hours on a stuck bell housing bolt. I used every tool I have including torch and impact. I was at a loss so I sprayed PB Blaster (recommended by a friend) and went to bed. In the morning the bolt was finger loose! Crazy. I’m now a firm believer in PB Blaster but I’m going to try Liquid Wrench now too. Great video sir!

Before I even start to remove the housing to the fan and everything I spray everything down with kroil. Especially for the fan shaft.

I found a real excellent way to use liquid wrench on both oxygen sensors and exhaust bolts. First drive the car and get it hot. Next, spray the bolt, nut or sensor with Liquid Wrench. It generally smokes a bit. Let the car sit for 15 minutes. Spray again, let sit for another 15 minutes, spray again and let sit for about an hour. Now try to remove the nuts and bolts and they will generally come off. I was amazed at how much easier exhaust bolts and especially oxygen sensors were to remove when doing this. Yea, it takes a couple hours of prep with Liquid Wrench, but it has proven to be worth the effort and wait several times for me.

This is a good one. I've always used wd40 as a penetrant because that's what we were told it was as kids. It wasn't a lubricant, it was only to be used to break rusted stuff free. Years ago I found PB and haven't touched wd40 since. I've always avoided liquid wrench based on opinions of those around me. No experience on anything else. This is very surprising to say the least.

Realistically one coat is applied, then attempted to remove after 5-10 minutes. This would be a more real world test for this type of product, but I guess if you are just a DIY repair person with plenty of time, this is a good approach. Great video though!

Koorite if you read my comment I say PB Blaster hands down. Its What every REAL PRO will reach for... And WD40 Is for Newbies and Walmart shoppers... I havnt had a use for WD40 Since i was 13 and im 40 now... WD40 Shouldnt even be in the lineup... Regardless, when you find something that works on EVERYTHING and youve never needed to look any futher... then WHY LOOK ANY FUTHER... Try PB Blaster and youll be set for life. I use it as my all around pen oil and rust gaurd... All my tools get wiped down with it after a hard use before storage. Plus 1 can last forever and a prick year... The Can ive got now ive had about 8 years. It doesnt take much at all and it last.

DrJones yeah, i know WD40 is junk. i currently only use pb blaster now and it works great, but this video showed that liquid wrench is also a good penetrating fluid, so i would like to give it a try since i have never used it!

PB blaster is junk. CRC Knocker Loose #1. PB is the WD-40 of penetrating oils.
