<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.

At work the mechancis use it by the case.  I have  probably used a couple of 
cases myself over the last 15 years.  If you spray it on for several days 
and the parts do not come loose, nothing chemical will loosen the parts.

It is very good at freeing rusted parts and does not seem to gum up like 
some other penetrating oils such as a brand called FreeAll..
