[ARC5] [Milsurplus] Penetrating oil test -

[Tim]

Take a look at the "Project Farm" channel on Youtube.  This guy does an
excellent job of evaluating various products against each other in a pretty
rigorous, unbiased way.  Check this one on penetrating oil - includes
Aerokroil.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUEob2oAKVs
I'm a fan!  Enjoy!
