WD-40 Well, Who Knew...?

<< < (2/4) > >>

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.

280plus:
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.
