Default Re: Wd40!

I once used the stuff in an oil lantern, worked surprisingly well, but, the fumes stank the place out, so that went out the window (metaphorically!!!)...

Then there's also the flame thrower, light the end of the straw and blast some WD through it, outdoors of course, I never did manage to get that sooty mark off one of the ceilings of my first house....

Can't say that I use WD40 these days, mainly cos I haven't got any, but also cos there's no reason to use it, the sleeve bearings in my vacuums use 3-in-1, loosening stuff up I use heat, and a bit of 3-in-1, and squeaky or sticky things, yep, you guessed it, 3-in-1...

I'm sure there are uses I could use it for, I just haven't found them yet...
