WD-40!
« on: February 09, 2009, 07:26:50 AM »

Water Displacement #40. The product began from a search for
A rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect
Missile parts. WD-40 was created in 1953 by three
Technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. Its
Name comes from the project that was to find a
'water displacement' compound. They were
Successful with the fortieth formulation, thus WD-40. The
Corvair Company bought it in bulk to protect their atlas
Missile parts.

Ken East (one of the original founders) says there is
Nothing in WD-40 that would hurt you...' IT IS MADE
FROM FISH OIL' . When you read the 'shower door'
Part, try it. It's the first thing that has ever cleaned
That spotty shower door. If yours is plastic, it works
Just as well as glass. It is a miracle! Then try it on your
Stovetop... It is now shinier than it has ever been before.

1) Protects silver from tarnishing.

16) Keeps scissors working smoothly.
17) Lubricates noisy door hinges on vehicles and doors in
Homes
18) It removes black scuff marks from the kitchen
Floor! Open some windows if you have a lot of marks.
19) Bug guts will eat away the finish on your car.
Removed quickly, with WD-40!
20) Gives a children's play gym slide a shine for a
Super fast slide.
21) Lubricates gear shift on lawn mowers.
22) Rids kids rocking chairs and swings of squeaky noises.
23) Lubricates tracks in sticking home windows and makes
Them easier to open.
2 4) Spraying an umbrella stem makes it easier to open
And close.
25) Restores and cleans padded leather dashboards in
Vehicles, well as vinyl bumpers.
26) Restores and cleans roof racks on vehicles.
27) Lubricates and stops squeaks in electric fans.
28) Lubricates wheel sprockets on tricycles, wagons,
And bicycles for easy handling.
29) Lubricates fan belts on washers and dryers and keeps
Them running smoothly.
30) Keeps rust from forming on saws and saw blades, and
Other tools.
31) Removes splattered grease on stove.
32) Keeps bathroom mirror from fogging.
33) Lubricates prosthetic limbs.
34) Keeps pigeons off the balcony (they hate the smell).
35) Removes all traces of duct tape.
36) Folks even spray it on their arms, hands, and knees
To relieve arthritis pain
37) Florida's favorite use 'Cleans and removes
Love bugs from grills and bumpers.'
38) Protects the Statue of Liberty from the elements.
39) WD-40 attracts fish. Spray a LITTLE on live bait or lures
And you will be catching the big one in no time.
40) Ant bites. It takes the sting away immediately and
Stops the itch.
41) WD-40 is great for removing crayon from walls. Spray on
The mark and wipe with a clean rag.
42) If you've washed and dried a tube of lipstick with
A load of laundry, saturate the lipstick spots
With WD-40 and Presto! Lipstick is gone!
43) If you spray WD-40 on the distributor cap, it will
Displace the moisture and allow the car to start.

I keep a can of WD-40 in my kitchen cabinet over the
Stove. It is good for oven burns or any other type of
Burn. It takes the burned feeling away and heals with NO scarring.
Remember, the basic ingredient is FISH OIL.   :thumbup:
