[GreenKeys] Penetrating oils (Was "...NCR machine")

[Michael O'Day]

In fact I have a can of Kroil, labled "Aero-Kroil, the oil that creeps" on my shelf now. We used it on all the stubborn mechanical parts on NCR / Unisys check encoders & sorters. When they laid me off, the can was still in my car. ;-)  I can vouch for it's penetrating abilities. In a pinch, it even freed-up a few sticky bearings for me, getting me home at a semi-resonable hour with the promise to return in the morning, parts in hand.

I just got a can of PB Blaster at the car parts store.  I needed  
something to work on my 1951 tractor, and I'd heard about that  
stuff. ...No experience with it yet, but this tractor will be a  
challenge!

The tractor dealer (Case IHC) had a different kind of penetrating oil  
I can't remember the name of.

Years ago I used KD Knocker Loose, which seems to still be available  
in some places.  It appears that CRC makes it now.

Kroil I've never used.

Of course the old standby is Liquid Wrench.

Are there others that folks find useful??
