Proven Products For The Automotive Maintenance And Repair Industry
Automotive repair technicians have seen it all. Vehicles take a beating on and off the road, and it is often up to professional mechanics to keep them running smoothly. While rust and corrosion can occur in any climate, the midwestern and northeastern regions of the United States can be particularly unkind to cars and trucks. The combination of harsh weather conditions and salted roads can wreak havoc on even the most well-maintained vehicles. Adding typical automotive wear and tear to those more extreme scenarios keeps skilled auto techs in high demand.

The Right Tools For The Job
An auto mechanic’s primary goals are to quickly and accurately diagnose and address vehicle problems, and then move on to the next project. When automobiles are in service bays for long periods of time, business and customer satisfaction are negatively impacted. That’s why professional-grade products from Kano, the makers of Kroil, are regularly included on the shelves and work benches of auto repair facilities. Kano products help save time and money by speeding project completion and improving vehicle performance.
Kroil Original Penetrant
When it comes to freeing corroded items in tough spaces, nothing rivals powerful, industry-proven Kroil penetrating oil. Kroil quickly loosens rusted nuts and bolts, frees frozen shafts, pulleys, conveyors and more. No space is too tight to reach, thanks to Kroil’s ability to penetrate the smallest opening, thread or crevice. Corrosion meets its match, as Kroil helps remove and prevent rust, cleans and lubricates, and displaces moisture.
Silikroil, Kroil Penetrant with Silicone
Silikroil has been engineered to loosen frozen metal parts and provide extra lubrication for long-lasting protection. The addition of silicone to the legendary Kroil formula results in superior penetration, lubrication and rust prevention. This high solvency oil first penetrates into the tightest of spaces to break the bond of rust, and then provides lubrication at the first molecular level, subsequently freeing virtually any metal part.
Penephite, Kroil Penetrant with Graphite
Penephite is a unique blend of oils, solvents and graphite engineered to penetrate the smallest gaps of corroded metals to loosen seized parts. The graphite is designed to stick to metal and provide long lasting lubrication, which will remain in place even in temperatures up to 700°F (371°C).
Floway
Floway contains a powerful grease-cutting solvent that penetrates, dissolves and removes grease, tar, ink, asphalt, oil, dirt, crud, grime, carbon and gunk. It’s excellent for cleaning greasy equipment, motors, machinery, parts, tools and more. It washes off easily and will not attack painted surfaces.
Exrust
Exrust penetrates and chemically reacts with rust to quickly remove it from all surfaces. It is effective on all ferrous metals without harming the base steel or iron*. After treatment, any type of finish can be applied.
*Do not use Exrust on non-ferrous metals.
Pyrolube
Pyrolube provides superior, long-lasting lubrication at temperatures up to 1359° F (700°C). It leaves a smooth, graphoid-lubricated surface, and will not drip or form abrasive particles. It also reduces wear by preventing metal-to-metal contact.
Microil
Microil lubricates bearings and mechanisms in precision instruments, gauges, meters, clocks, micrometers, counters, controls, light machinery and other small mechanisms. Its low viscosity, low evaporation formula lubricates to -50° F. It is non-corrosive, and will not gum.
Kreen
Kreen is used to help keep fleet vehicles of all kinds running smoothly. It dissolves sludge, gum and varnish in gas and diesel engines, and softens and removes excess carbon from around valve stems and piston grooves. It also thoroughly cleans the entire crankcase, injectors and oil lines.
