Indispensable! [Posted on 2008-04-17]
I once read somewhere that WD-40 was found in more homes than any other single household product. Well, this doesn't surprise me any. This stuff is astonishingly useful in an unbelievable number of ways. Look it up. There are several internet sites and a number of published reports on the uses this wonderful product has been put to.

I've had this stuff in the house and in the garage for years and years. I use it to fix a wide variety of things that aren't working well. For example, if any lock, latch, hinge or other moveable part is "creaking" a shot of WD-40 almost always solves the problem. If I can't remove a screw or bolt, a squirt of WD-40 often helps the problem. It can be an excellent cleaner. It can remove moisture from electrical connections. I've gotten to the point where if something doesn't work, I always try a little WD-40 just in case it might help. Every now and then, I'm unexpectedly rewarded. Don't expect it to be a miracle worker. If something is broken, it's broken. However, This stuff comes as close to a "fix all" product as any I've ever tried.

The new "Smart Straw" dispenser now available relieves a former problem. I'd almost always lose the straw. With it lost, then I'd be relegated to just general-purpose spraying. No More. With the new top, you can either spray or use the narrow-focus straw for application. The new top is a big improvement to an already-good product. It is very convenient, works well and makes WD-40 even more useful.

So, if this is in such widespread use and is found in so many households, why would I bother to review it? Well, there's always some people who've never gotten the word and this listing doesn't have a review. Plus, I'm putting together a Listminia! roster called "The Household Products Hall of Fame." Any such compilation would have to be incomplete without WD-40.

Remarkable product [Posted on 2008-05-31]
I had some rusted automobile bolts where I squirted on some WD-40. Still I could not get them to come loose after several minutes of trying with WD-40. Couple days later, I went to try again and remarkably they were all loose. They had all loosened up after being covered for a couple days with WD-40. No force required with the wrench where the nut and bolt had been stuck. I was impressed. It did still require some force, however, to turn the nuts the rest of the way completely off the rusted bolts.

I have a CHANNELLOCK needle-nose plier I use for fishing. It was getting rusty and tightening up. I put a few drops of motor oil on it and it still felt tight. After squirting WD-40 on it, it became totally loose. I had to wipe it with a paper towel because after squirting WD-40 on it brown rusty WD-40 liquid flows out from the plier. (I should look for some stainless steel pliers.)

I like the new straw with the pivot, too. The nozzle can be set in two positions, with or without the straw. Cool.
