American Grease Stick LE-4 "Lock-ease" Graphited Lock Fluid 3.4 Oz.

It is easy to apply, makes things very slippery with the graphite. As it stands right now, my car doesn't let me lock the vehicle because it thinks my keys are still in the ignition. As soon as I spray electrical contact cleaner into the ignition switch, I will attempt to clean this product out. Later, I will make use of silicon lube, or something similar. Due to the ignition switch issue, I have no other option but to replace it, so I am trying to avoid that option as much as possible. As reported by the previous owner of the car, the switch also received a spray of graphite (which would explain two episodes where the car was started, but NONE of the accessories came on until the car was turned Say it again USE ONLY INSIDE AN ENGINE SHIFT! Do not use inside an ignition switch! There is also a strong petroleum smell that lingers for a long period of time. * Update Using a silicone lube and electronics cleaner, we cleaned out the ignition switch and the switch is working.

Funnily enough, I pick my own locks when I'm bored. There is a six-pin training lock I use, which includes several extra pins so that the difficulty can be changed and anything can be mixed up. It I was frustrated with how long it took me to pick it. It could take an hour or more. I won't say how long I think it will take. In it I put some of this stuff, ran the key I keyed the lock to about 20 times, raised and lowered all the pins a bunch of times with the pick, then obviously cleaned everything up since it was messy and smelled terrible, and tried it again. After a short learning period (in which I failed to enter the sticky lock), I picked the lock with no problem. Over and over and over With multiple spools and various serrated pin sizes, a straight driver, and various size serrated pins, it takes less than two minutes. I was almost able to open the lock even when it resisted My picks were always successful and the lock told me what to do when it was ready to open within a minute or two, with only a single reset on average between successful attempts. The changes are not heroic, but they are significant! This stuff worked on one lock five times in a row before I decided I would try this stuff on another one. The reason I took a star off is that it has a section for "petroleum distillate", but it does not specify which type. As a result, I assume there are toxic or cancer-causing fractions in the mix, such as The fraction of alcohol that could be used to deliver the graphite makes sense to me(*). Even better would be something even less harmful like isopropyl, ethyl, or methyl alcohol. They are all fairly volatile and not harmful (except for methyl). There's nothing worse than smelling like gasoline in your house, and you are done with those days, Almost as if I were to rate the product as "just ok" with 3 stars, but I'll leave it at 4, anyway. Yes, that is correct (*) I do see you. In these lines, it's logical that if you use some partially refined materials in your product, it's cheaper than having all the material thoroughly refined and then only using the safe, volatile parts. that leaves a lubricating layer on the graphite. idea why it makes the lock, and whatever room it's in, smell so disgusting every time I use it. Possibly days from now My decision has yet to be made.

We were unable to turn some of our Hurricane Shutter Knobs because they froze. Even though it took many times to turn one knob, it worked. On it, I did not use a set of pliers as suggested on the internet. If you wish to wipe the shutter after applying the fluid, carry a damp paper towel. The shutter will have black lines all the way down that can easily be erased if the process is performed right away. The knob has to be moved to make it move. By putting the shutter outward, I was able to let the graphite fluid drip to Once the fluid had gotten around the frozen area of the rod, I squirted it behind the knob. Using a damp piece of paper towel, I placed it under the knob where it sat in the rod. Next, I applied more graphite fluid on the area and left it for a few hours. Don't forget to wipe off the black drips. The knob had to be loosen several times before it could be loosened. The graphite fluid will be used again as regular preventative maintenance so that I won't have to deal with this issue.

I found it very strange that one of my locks was not working. To save myself some money, I thought I would try this as a last resort before replacing the lock completely. I am amazed! I really like it. That said, I managed to fix the problem, but it was a hiccup with my memory because I'm so used to the little squeeze puff dispensers. Do remember a liquid isn't like a thin solid. The water ran down the door fairly steadily, so I didn't need to squeeze as hard. I used Magic Eraser to remove the stain from my paint, and it worked brilliantly. In addition, I appreciate that this product comes with a liquid that penetrates into every corner of the body, then evaporates to leave You did a great job!.
