the candle trick for getting off stuck lugs nuts. But really, don't you think you'd just go get some penetrating oil?



As always, skip the first minute. Thanks Mike! http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ba2_1475277076

  1. This method will work where penetrating oil will fail. If you got a rusted bolt in a blind hole, and you can't afford to have it break off, this is definitely the way to go.

    Side note: The best penetrating oil I have ever come across is a 50/50 mixture of acetone and ATF. Has one drawback though. It is extremely flammable, so you cannot use it in conjunction with heating with a torch.

    1. I've heard of that mixture, and posted about it back in 2010 http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/10/penetrating-oils-compared.html
