[Boatanchors] National HRO-7 Chassis/Cabinet Disassembly Problem

[Jim Wiley]

Kroil can be obtained from Amazon.com.  See the following link:

https://www.amazon.com/Kano-Kroil-Penetrating-liquid-KROIL/dp/B000F09CF4/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1511913804&sr=8-2-spons&keywords=kroil+penetrating+oil&psc=1&smid=A26RBB5XP2LWJC

Product must be shipped via ground. I think it is prohibited to ship the 
basic can package by air transport.  UPS Ground or Fedex ground works 
fine.   Air transport may be OK if in spray cans, but you will have to 
ask and see,  and using a spray can is wasteful of product.

Sometimes you can get it from a place like Walmart or  one of the 
automotive supply stores.

  Perhaps one of the other list members will chip in here with a better 
idea.   A 5 oz. can is literally a lifetime supply for a casual 
hobbyist.   Well nd truly  worth the investment.  I purchased a small 
can some years ago, still have most of it.    If there are other ham 
radio builders in your area,  several of you can share the resource.

Kroil is a truly superior penetrating oil, useful for loosening all sorts of threaded mechanisms , bearings,  etc. Use a SMALL drop, perhaps two, and let time finish the job - in other words, apply Kroil, wait severalhours, and lock-screws or other similar stuff will loosen as if by magic.  What was once frozen will now come loose with only moderate force.
