A few things on WD-40.
** So a few lies from this norotious WD-40 hater.
It is, essentially, stoddard solvent, that is highly refined
kerosene and a very small amount of very light mineral oil.
** WD-40 contains no kerosene and the oil content is 10-15 %.
It is 100% volatile over time. Which is directly related to temperature.
** At room temp, that could means years.
WD-40 is NOT a contact cleaner. What it does along those lines is by rinsing.
** So the same action as other contact cleaners.
WD-40 is not a lubricant.
** Of course it is.
