Good to hear it. Their claims were awfully hard to believe!

I remember one about a punch press that went something like :

The foreman used to have us cut the 1.5" nuts off the platen with a torch.
Then, we tried Kroil, and 5 minutes later we took the nuts off with our
fingers! This, I'd like to see!

But, I'm glad to know that at least their product is very good.
