alexander72 Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 A bit weird this one but today I was working at a house for an old chap.... long story short had to change a few bits on the chipper and couldnt get some anvil bolts out.... Out came a tin from the 1970's (Aerosol) called "Rapideze"...... worked a treat..... The can said "Rapideze releases components rapidly and easily with it's compelling action" The old guy used to make it at a factory in Market Harborough to a secret recipe..... He hates WD40 BTW So has anyone used it, heard of it? Answers on a post card - or on here for speed... Quote

Norman Verona Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 wrong dangler. I used Plus Gas in the 60's It was in tins with a thin, long spout in those days,Mainly an acid but, yes, it does work. I've got some and bought it over here. Quote
