I was going to try it on my next rc motor but was curious if anyone else had tried it with good results?
interesting , i have heard of it but not sure how it would work on a plated surface such as the a/b/c p/s system we use in our engines
would def. work on the crank

i am interested , whats the temp you guys go down to for steel ? aluminum?
