WD-40 (again) was Re: A fruitfull evening

One wonders about PSF? Is it better or worse than ATF.

In my experience petroleum oil and acetone are not miscible. Water and alcohol (and gasoline) will mix with acetone, however. So what's the lowdown on the ATF-acetone mixture? http://www.instructables.com/id/Home-made-penetrating-oil/ States pretty clearly that the mix will separate, so you have to keep shaking the bottle. Perhaps it could be made to emulsify somehow (add a surfactant?) Personally, I'd substitute paint thinner or kerosene for the acetone. I suspect it will work just as well--and it'd mix with the ATF. --Chuck
