It's penetrating oil to loosen parts up, kinda like WD-40 on drugs.

Kroil is the best thing short of 50/50. It's been shown in tests, Kroil is like 10x better than PB.

It works with heat sometimes. And it's expensive as ****, and hard to come by. It sucks.

It's hard to come by because it's expensive. The product is very good at its intended purpose.

Cruiser, I haven't heard of freezing penetrating oils

Damn. I'm gonna have to try some of that. Only downside I see is having to use a LOT of it per bolt/nut to get the desired effect.
