    Smile Acetone Atf

    I have been using this for years. I store in glass jar like peanut butter container until I want to use, then just put into a pump style oil can. I do use a WD40 spray bottle to apply occasionally but put back in glass jar until the next opportunity arises. I mixed some when I first heard about it and the next day I saw where it had seperated. I just thought it must have been a special type of ATF that I had not gotten and dismissed the whole idea. I heard later the juice seperates and has to be shaken up before application. I am wondering if the Kerosene disolves the ATF which is why it needs to mixed before mixing with acetone. I will try it. Kroil is good, but this is much cheaper and only slightly less convenient to use. I have gotten into the habit of shaking the can everytime I pick it up for another shot.
