    Canadian Tire should have it.
    They have it here.

      Yup its in Can Tire here too. (if my "here" is even different from JEEPRUSTY's "here")

      EDIT: There are plenty of other penetrating oils as well. If you cant find one, a 50/50 mix of acetone and ATF will do the trick.

        Tried the one on Cambie St. No luck. But I will check their web site. Going to the one in Grandview to look at their tank bag and rear luggage set anyway. $89.95, so its probably pretty crappy.

            Sometimes things get hidden in CT stores.
            They shoul be able to look it up and I do not understand why the website would not accurately account for stock. It is the purpose of the function.
            Like Future Shop's

            Of course someone could be stalking CT and buying up PB blaster and got the last one at the first store you tried before the website could update.

              Damn you're right. I wonder where they have it hiding. It wasn't with the liquid wrench and other like products. Guess I'll just have to ask. Thanx problem solved.

                Speaking of liquid wrench, does anybody know what the hell happened to the Blue-ish Green cans they used to sell?

                They have a light Blueish Cap, and have a minty/menthol smell to it.

                I friggin love that style of liquid wrench(the smell reminds me of Christmas), and I CANT find it anymore???

                  Releasall? It used to smell like that, doesn't seem to anymore.

                      Make your own... someone posted a recipe on here of 50% ATF & 50% acetone or something. Not tried it but it's meant to work really well!

                        The acteone ATF does work very well but for 8 bucks a can it saves the price of a liter of acetone and ATF.

                          It was regular ol' liquid wrench penetration spray.
                          It had a light-blue cap, and now all the LW penetration sprays have gone to a Yellow cap, and the smell is totally different!

                          Releaseall could be extremely similar, but I've never used it.

                            I picked up some Deep Creep made by Seafoam. Works for me. I found it in stock at Canadian Tire on No3 Rd

                            btw...the Canadian Tire on Cambie Street is the worst stocked CT in Vancouver. They didnt even have Rotella on the shelves the last few times I was in.

                            The auto department manager encouraged me to talk to the desk about products so they could file missed sales thinking they might eventually bring more product in.
