Only if you don't clean them afterwards  ;D  Apparently, if rings are proving reluctant to seal after an engine rebuild then introducing powdered Vim via the air intake can work  :o  I've never tried it myself as the cheap glaze buster I got from Machine Mart has always worked fine (as did the manual method before that).
