For those who have been using WD-40 as a lubricant, you've been using it wrong all along.

https://www.rd.com/home/cleaning-organizing/13-amazing-uses-for-wd-40/

 

1. If you need to remove surf wax, its just another easy way to get wax off the old log.

2. Use it to catch more fish.

3. Keep the bugs off your surf wagon

4. Get rid of stains.

5. Use it as deoderant to smell great.

Yeah,  no kidding.  Good for a lot of stuff, but never as a lube. 

Use number 1027:  Makes good fuel for a potato"e" cannon. 

 

(people should post what they use WD-40 for in this thread, it might be pretty funny!)

KY is a much better lubricant.

It's a great way to break down lubrication, once again learned when I sprayed it into my bearings.

That card might get you in trouble with HR in this day and age.
