I have got a bolt seized good and solid in a redline bottom bracket. It is a bike which has left in a damp garage for a long time. The other side came out ok.
Any advice on what to do would be great.
Thanks

Used Rost Off myself and it is superb stuff, really works well although you just wouldn't think it would.
