The Amazing WD-40

[jbbdolphins]

Thought I would share this...amazing WD-40 (don't leave home without it)

The product began

from a search for a rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect

missile parts. WD-40 was created in 1953 by three technicians at the San

Diego

Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to

find a 'water displacement' compound. They were successful with the

fortieth formulation, thus WD-40. The Convair Company bought it in bulk

to protect their atlas missile parts. Ken East (one of the original

founders) says there is nothing in WD-40 that would hurt you. When you

read the 'shower door' part, try it. It's the first thing that has ever

cleaned that spotty shower door. If yours is plastic, it works just as

well as glass. It's a miracle! Then try it on your stove top. It's

now shinier than it's ever been. You'll be amazed.

Liberty from the elements.

39. WD-40 attracts fish. Spray a little on live bait or lures and you will

be catching the big one in no

time. Also, it's a lot cheaper than the chemical attractants that are

made for just that purpose. Keep in mind though, using some chemical

laced baits or lures for fishing are not allowed in some states.

40. Use it for fire ant bites. It takes the sting away immediately and

stops the itch.

41. WD-40 is great for removing crayon from walls. Spray on the mark and

42. Also, if you've discovered that your teenage daughter has washed

and dried a tube of lipstick with a load of laundry, saturate the

lipstick spots with WD-40 and rewash. Presto! The lipstick is gone!

43. If you sprayed WD-40 on the distributor cap, it would displace the

moisture and allow the car to start.

P.S. The basic ingredient is FISH OIL.
