It is frequently my FIRST choice. I'm afraid you misunderstand the issue. Removing the nut is not a problem. I removed it and put it back on the bolt to protect the threads. The problem is removing the stainless bolt, which is, not surprisingly, corroded to the aluminum stanchion. ah. Sorry for missing that in this (long) thread. Indeed, stainless and aluminum are an evil combination. I have a mizzen mast with a seized aluminum sheave (it runs, or more correctly "ran" on a stainless axle) - I can commiserate. bob |

Silaprene Adhesive/Sealant experience
Dave,
Glacial Acetic Acid is almost pure acetic acid. Any chemical supply house will have it in small bottles. Be careful while handling it. Add acid to water rather than water to acid when diluting. Et c. Dave M. |
