WD-40 Well, Who Knew...?
Gewehr98:
For cleaning guns, certainly. For lubrication, and particularly long-term lubrication, if you love your guns, keep them away from WD-40.
Car Knocker:
:Ken East (one of the original founders) says there is nothing in WD-40
that would hurt you."
Well, on the WD-40 MSDS sheet, SectionII (Hazardous Ingredients) are listed:
Aliphatic Petroleum Distillates 45-50%
Petroleum Base Oil 30-35%
LVP Hydrocarbon Fluid 12-18%
Non-hazardous Ingredients <10%
Doesn't sound like something one would ingest with impunity.

Oh I don't know, a little seltzer a twist of lime...
brimic:
I prefer Kroil for most applications WD-40 might be used for. Only downside of Kroil is that it does not smell good.
Sergeant Bob:
If you get that grungy, grimy, gritty, gunky grease on your clothes from working under the old 79 Jimmy, use WD-40 to get the grease out before you wash them.
Need something to help start your diesel, but doesn't do the harm that starting fluid does, try a shot of WD-40.
