Works! I had about 8 very tricky little screws that I had to remove but couldn't no matter how hard I tried. Without this gel I was only able to remove two of them and it took me a lot of effort and frustration. I also damaged two screws. With this friction gel I was able to loosen all 8 screws very easily. It even allowed me to remove the screws I had damaged with little effort. I would recommend this gel to anyone having screw problems.
