Not necessarily. Oil will dissolve some stuff. WD has a little bit of
lubricating value. It is also a good solvent for getting sticker
adhesive off windows.

What's fun, is to spray it over a flame. Makes a nice flame thrower.

Hello,

Always wondering about this, in regard to WD-40:

How can a product (claim to) be both a lubricant, and at the same time
a
solvent ?

Aren't they at opposite ends of the spectra ?

Thanks,
Bob
