Had an experience with it last week. Working on a disc gang with a bad bearing. Bearing was rusted on like nothing I have ever seen before. For two weeks we tried heating the shaft and bearing, soaked it with every kind of solvent,viberated it with an air hammer.Beat on the shaft with a 16# hammer, upended the entire gang and dropped it shaft end down on a 300# iron block dozens of times to try to use the weight of the discs and spools to slide hammer the rusted bearing off, nothing worked. Then I remembered hearing about the coke trick,I heated the shaft to aprox 300 degrees and dribbled diet coke( no sugar to turn to carbon) on the shaft and bearing untill they were cool enough so the coke wouldn't boil any more. Upended the thing and dropped it twice on the iron block and the bearing was off!!
