Everything you need, it is a candle and a lighter.
And the best part is that it only takes a few seconds to loosen! Look :

You don't even have to wait for the bolt to cool.
Fast, isn't it? Just a little candle wax and that's it!
I too was skeptical at first, but I tested the trick on my old car and it works!

Hope this tip helps you if one day you too have to loosen a nut that is too tight and you don't have a torch handy.
Why does it work?
This technique for removing a rusty bolt from a car is a bit like soldering a copper pipe.
The heat from the lighter flame will suck the wax from the candle into the grooves of the bolt, which helps lubricate the seized bolt.
