have never found any of them very effective so tend to go directly to the grinder and new nut/bolts option

plus gas is the best penetrant
WD40 is the best water displacer
GT85 is the best all rounder (and smells nicest)

Plusgas is quite good, especialy if you can leave it (and replenish it!) over a couple of days. Best way i've found of loosening a bolt is to try and tighten it very slightly first then loosen it, works a treat!

WD40 dissolves grease, GT85 does not. WD40 for displacing water but beware, it will (over time) dissolve grease, possibly where you don't want it to....

I am with SEAN, go for the grinder - job always looks like its been done right with shiny new bolts/nuts - and use copperslip for next time then you will be able to use the spanners to get it off.
