Screw friction products EZ-Grip and Screw Grab?
I was reading an article about fasteners the other day.
They mentioned a couple of products I had not heard of before:
EZ-grip and Screw Grab
Apparently if you have a screw that you have a hard time engaging like a worn Phillips, a drop of these products will increase the friction between the screw and the driver 8X it is claimed so that you can back out the screw.
You can find them both at Amazon.
Not cheap 5 oz of EZ-GRIP is $20; 1/2 oz of Screw Grab is $15.
Anyone ever used these? Do they work?
does this rubber band trick work just as well?

#1Jim Frye commented04-07-2022, 04:52 PMEditing a commentHaven't used these, but I recall a product many years ago that had some sort of grit in it to increase the grip of the driver in the screw. IIRC, you dipped the driver into the goop and then used it on the buggered up screw head. Don't remember the product name though.

Hi Guys - I haven't been on the forum much lately ... I bought a '55 MGTF-1500 that is taking up space, time, and money that is(was) used by my woodworking shop. The car has a wood frame beneith the body panels, so I guess it counts as woodworking. Thanks for resurrecting my No-Measure alignment thread. I see that it has lost some of the attachments. So I reposted it below. Note - there are a lot of good ways to adjust a BT3K or any other table saw. This is the one that I found is best for...

Since it seems time for my semi-annual maintenance and due to several posts asking how to lately I deciced to take pictures during mine. Keep in mind this is specifically for the BT3000 only.
Step 1: double un-plug saw at outlet and onboard outlet. Remove throat plate, Sharkguard, Big dog clamp, and splitter (or the stock POS []). Remove blade and spacers.
Step 2: remove left side cover and dust shroud.
Step 3: remove the four...-

by crokettUpgrading the shims avoids the issue of the BT3000 shims dropping out and causing the blade-raising mechanism to bind.
Before you begin:
Call Ryobi technical support at 1-800-525-2579 with the serial number from your saw to
verify that your saw is eligible for the upgrade. Some earlier BT3000s are not.
‘Right’ and ‘Left’ designations assume you are starting by looking at the front of the saw....
These instructions assume a stock-
