WD-40

WD-40, the magical solution to all mechanical problems. it stops squeaks, prevents rust, why it even quenches thirst!

WD-40 stands for WATER DISPLACEMENT-40. 40 refers to the "weight" or viscosity of the fluid.

while many people love WD-40 for its lubricating properties (think hinges) and its anti- rust properties, few realise that its actually a penetrating SOLVENT too.

this means it does things like remove chewing gum, clean up adhesive residue etc al. there are thousands of uses for WD-40 online. go find em

the problem is that WD 40 isnt that great a lubricant, it isnt very long lasting. so if you WD-40 your bike chain, please, use a proper heavyweight grease on it after that!

now go use some WD-40, and go tell your freinds some random facts!
