I can't find PB Blaster anywhere, though that's the resounding recommendation of the forum. I did find something from 3 in 1 called, originally enough, "penetrating compound."
I was wondering if anyone had an experience with the two and, not being available at Lowes, where one would find PB Blaster.
Thanks!

I'll let you know if it helps me get my spark plug bases out. Worked very well on my power door locks (instead of 6 presses of the button to lock it now only takes 1 or 2).
Should be an acceptable test. Considering how bad these things are.
If you can't find PB Blaster, grab some Liquid Wrench if you see it. I think LW works better than PB, but many disagree. I use them both. LW seems to be thinner and will penetrate better while PB is thicker and will cling better. It's a tradeoff. I think LW penetrates threads better, but you have to use a lot since it doesn't cling as well. In areas where the LW will just run off, PB would be the better choice.
