[SEL] Need Release Agent for JB Weld

[bill at antique-engines.com]

Never had that problem as every time I've ever tried JB, it either never
stuck to anything, or it broken too easily. I've got 2 pairs of tubes that
have hardened with age because I've given up on it and don't use it on
anything important. I've yet to have it work for me..........
