    Wow! I’m liking this stuff, could I use that to undercoat my Jeep? Since Jeep’s are prone to rusting.

    Tip for people who won't buy an air compressor, (I did but I hate all the noise it makes) you can often get by with using a foot or hand pump as used for inflating a bicycle or car tire.

      First of all my friend be very careful with a torch around magnesium. If it catches on fire, which it can…you will never be able to put it out. Those engine blocks, burn like crazy. Not trying to scare you just warning you.
      I have never had one stuck like that. The only thing you can really do is keep banging away on it. I have never even heard of one thing about stubborn.
