As far as i know the WD stands for water displacement (??)

Aparently the 40 is due to the amount of different formula attempts it took the manufactures to get the composition right,

Could be a load of bull but im sure I read it somewhere (so yeah, it is probably bull!)  :D

That's right. And is even on the manufacturer's website.

Along with their official "perfect tool for everything" sales pitch.

People warn against using WD-40 as a lubricant ... because it isn't really a lubricant.

WD-40 isn't really bad, but it is misapplied much of the time.

And people use it as a lubricant because it's advertised as such.
coorslight:
Funny thing is I have the bearings sitting in WD-40 to clean out all the grease works great for that but for lube think I'm going to go with the 3-in-1 recommend by most. Thanks again.
