I too have used PB Blaster in the past and it does work....BUT......don't
get any of that stuff on you or the XYL will make you sleep in the dawg
house!

place....kaff....

Subject: Re: Topband: aluminum "penetrating oil"
I've been using PB Blaster penetrating oil with good success. Since you
know there are Penetrox particles (it is zinc dust plus castor oil per the
MSDS) between the tubes, I'd try to wick some PB in there, let it sit for a
while and then work it back and forth to loosen up the dried up Pentrox.
Repeat until the boom comes apart.
The Penetrox'd 3" booms here put together 7 years ago, came apart easily,
but at some point the oil evaporates away.

In fact one of them separated 1/2 inch then stuck. Would there be a
"penetrating oil" that would help to free/lubricate these joints to make the
separation easier?
