It's a great degreaser, great on electrics, and lets you use regular sandpaper on metal as 'wet' sandpaper. Dave |

Cuyahoga salmon? g I'll bet the fish that lived in that river in 1969 thrived on WD-40. Well, actually no fish lived in the river. Only one species of brown algae, which lived only on pilings and rocks that got some air. The river was entirely anaerobic, which really slowed down the decay of humans and other animals, but it made them really stink bad. Fortunately, the only animals of any kind in that river were ones that fell in or were pushed. One whiff of it could make you swoon. How close is your shop to the Cuyahoga? -- Ed Huntress |

If I need a solvent cleaner, I buy a solvent cleaner, if I want a lubricant I buy LPS. Penetrant, Kroil, or PB. WD-40 is not much more than good advertising as far as I am concerned! Greg |
