Howzabout you morons buying a can of graphite suspended in a solvent.
Napa auto stores carries 'em. Douche yer locks with the
graphite/solvent, then wait for the solvent to evaporate. No more
frozen locks. And yes, it gets cold, here. I've seen my locks work
fine at 30 deg F below zero. That's 50 deg F below freezing.
Sorry, when the lock mechanism fills with water and it freezes, the lock
doesn't work. It's raining now and will freeze tonight. I bet when I go out
to the shed in a few minutes and pop the cap off the Ace 'weatherproof' lock
water will run out. Graphite, Tru-Flow, BreakFree, WD-40, doesn''t make a
difference.
