    Heat the bolt up again redhot and melt some paraffin on it. Enough to
get it
down into the threads. Paraffin penetrates far better than anything else.



  Excellent idea, just let the bolt cool a little before melting a candle
over the threads or the wax is liable to catch fire. This trick has saved me
more than once!
