Now there are some automotive sprays (e.g. the British Waxoyl) that might be very similar to Framesaver...
Yup, that's why I passed on it the first time at Home Depot when I asked them about rustproofing sprays. But if the smell test is definitive at all, it's the exact same stuff. Framesaver has a very distinctive smell.
Also looks the same out of the can. It might be "penetrating" in the sense that it lifts off rust. I did a spot test of frame saver and KEL-132 on a shovel with some surface rust, and both cleared up the rust pretty well off the sprayed spot.
