Totally agree, but you won't convince SteveB of that. He believes WD-40
is an adhesive.


no,it's just not worthwhile to use. and it does gum up over time.

I doubt you'll convince SmittyTwo of that. His mind seems to be made up.
And you may not have any other opinion than his.

But, I do agree. WD40 is for temporary lubrication, cleaning, and other
uses, but it does gum up over time, or is just a sand magnet.

ACTUALLY, it's not a lubricant at all. It's a water displacer.

And it is certainly not a penetrating oil.

Well, I know that and YOU know that but .........

I got a thing a while back about 99 uses for WD 40. Some of them were quite
unique, and I'd like to find it again and print it. One of the things was
wasp bites. If I get any this summer, I'll be trying it. I got stung one
day last summer by five of the lovely little creatures. All at once. Ow!

My BIL told me a story of how he used it at banks he did service work at to
"rejuvenate" the granite tops. He saw that the lady was watching him,
trying to find out the secret. She asked him what it was, and he just told
her, "Oh, you have to have a federal license to buy this particular stuff."
Made some nice bucks just with some liquid WD 40 and a terrycloth towel.
