I'm not sure any of those efforts gave satisfactory results.
The experiences of others here would be very interesting.
I've always adjusted my valves while the engine was running, just like my Dad did on the '65 Suburban he bought new that I own now. I use a breaker bar with a socket. The hinge on the breaker bar makes it easy to hang onto the handle while the socket goes up and down.
