I can't get the god forsaken key out of from under the caliper.

and I am [ ] that close to taking a blow torch to it....

I talked to the previous Owner today, he told me that he had not changed or even touched the brakes in over 8 years... How they lasted this long, I have now idea.
Can I use penetrating fluid to assist in getting the key and spring out? I only have those things holding me back.
The spring on the passenger side is out, but the key seems to be rusted in place.
Drivers side is not coming out at all.

I have a friend coming over to help. Sadly, he's half my size, so I don't see how much help he can be. Maybe, I'll make him my cup holder, or something along that line.
To answer the other question, yeah, 8 years, never been touched, only time they were exposed to sunlight, is when he had the Tires replaced.
