Title: New guy with a tip
Post by: mtnman37879 on March 21, 2017, 10:33:46 AM

I'm brand new here but I've pulled wrenches professionally for the last 45 years. I see a lot of post about stuck fasteners. NEVER-SEEZ. It need to be in your tool box and use it everywhere two pieces of metal touch. Next time you have to take her apart, she'll be easy.

Great tip.  Sure wish Willys Overland would have had a similar product back in the day.

I do use the Permatex version here and there.

Good idea. I used it in some places when I put my 3A together. When I took it apart I used a torch and a big hammer!!!

I also use a similar product....might also be Permatex.....I've not seen the Never-Seez but will look....

The Model A guys recommend smearing lithium grease on the INSIDE of radiator hoses before assembly......they slide on easy and are much easier to remove next time around!

I've been using this product for a few decades.
I've been happy with the results every time.
It's a silver paste in a brush cap can.
