Liquid Wrench is a penetrating oil not a lubricant. It completely evaporates leaving nothing with lubricity behind...
Penetrating lubricants are a heavy grease with a light fast evaporating solvent carrier. When the solvent evaporates the lubricating grease is still there.

Liquid wrench has a line of penetrates/lubricants. They have a lube oil and a separate penetrant. I've used lq wr for awhile and like their product.
