Found on a Honda forum:

The April/May 2007 edition of Machinist's Workshop did a test ofpenetrating 
oils where they measured the force required to loosen rustytest devices. Buy 
the issue if you want to see how they did the test. Theresults reported were 
interesting. The lower the number of pounds thebetter. Mighty interesting 
results for simple acetone and tranny fluid!

"Penetrating oil . Average load .. Price per fluid ounceNone ................. 
516 pounds .WD-40 .............. 238 pounds .. $0.25PB Blaster ......... 214 
pounds .. $0.35Liquid Wrench ... 127 pounds .. $0.21Kano Kroil ........ 106 
pounds .. $0.75ATF-Acetone mix.. 53 pounds .. $0.10

The ATF-Acetone mix was a 50/50 mix (1 to 1 ratio)."
