[s-cars] OT: Was RE: Stiff front door hinges

Love it.  I been mixing my own cutting fluid up for a while
(alcohol+kerosene+motoroil), might as well try this. What's to lose (except
getting cancer from the acetone)?  But I imagine you don't soak it long as
PB or LW, since the acetone is bound to evap in no time.  I got plenty of
Acetone but will need to grab a bottle of cheap ATF.  I'll probably do some
long-soaks with PB which I have, then dowse with the homebrew for 1/2 hr or
so and see how it goes.
