Whatever Which or the websites say, a proper penetrating oil such as Plus
Gas
is much more effective. However, often WD40 os nearer to hand, and does
work
after a fashion. For the difficult jobs, use the specialised product,
rather
than the general purpose 'does it all' spray.

Agreed, but I already carry upteen different chemicals, from silicone to
wood glue, so WD40 is a good all rounder for me.

I also recall that the Which report said Coca Cola actually worked and was
as good as the no name el cheapo brand.

WD40 is just a very expensive way of buying kerosine and a bit of
perfume.
