WD40 is shit. Get some diesel and oil mixed together, use a brush to "paint" it over the bolt head and leave that overnight. It won't evaporate like WD does, and will eat through it. I swear by it now after my old neighbour showed me the way with a seized toilet wing nut (dont ask). He uses it all the time on cars, as do I now. But you will have to leave it for a while.

Or get a long bar on your ratchet for the extra leverage if you don't have the time.

i bought a battery operated one found out its better to use old skool methods like the scaffolding tube.

Although it is very handy for wheels bolts and stuff im too lazy to undo like really long bolts etc

I had a cheap one, RAC make, powered by 12v car battery... that soon broke :lol: I think it got beaten by a tough bolt and the internals went a bit mental and put a hole in the casing :lol:
