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.

Wait,  I'm confused now.  Are you saying that you SHOULDN'T be using cream cheese as a deodorant?  I've found Philly's flavored versions actually work quite well, although they haven't really come up with a masculine flavor...errrr...scent.

This is getting WAY too informative a thread, and you guys are starting to push out some important stuff from my learning center.  If I forget where my house is, there will be hell to pay!

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

But in all seriousness, WD-40 does have a purpose.

Back in the day when I was a poor teenager, we used to clean and re-grease our skateboard bearings.
