Not THAT bad! I don't think Maxprop meant to operate the switch under load
while spraying. Afew seconds after spraying, 99% of the volatiles are gone,
(based on virtual tests conducted in my imagination G). Most of us have
WD-40 within easy reach--How many have De-oxit?


As a side note,
I'd be concerned about the possibility of the "protective" film left by
WD40 attracting and holding dust.
