Do any of you guys use this stuff? I got a couple dozen cans of it from the estate of a good friend a couple years ago but I haven't tried it out till this afternoon. The label claims it contains Hexane. I sprayed it on every moving part of an old hay rake I am freeing up. While it was soaking I used a cutoff wheel to cut of a farmerized bolt and whole rake went up in flames. Whooffff! A spark from the cutoff wheel touched it off. Went up like gasoline but the flame was more of an alcohol type flame with a red tinge to it. I always have a garden hose hooked up in the shop but in the 30 seconds it took to get the hose ready the flames had died down to a few flames licking up here and there. Even the product that dripped on the floor caught fire. It kind of gave me a raise in pulse, whooo. This stuff would have started that mower engine in a heartbeat. It foams up a little when it is sprayed, I suppose that is some kind of lubricant added to it. So here is another bit of advise, no sparks or flames when you use this stuff. It goes up like gasoline.
I suppose if you want to get a little more kick out of this penetrant on something that is all steel pull it outside, spray it down with this stuff and touch it off but stand back when you do it.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
