Here are some of the great things that can be done with WD-40 that a friend of mine sent me a long time ago. Tried to pick out the best ones for the guys and girls:

* Keeps flies off of cows
* Removes lipstick stains
* Gives floors that "just-waxed" sheen without making it slippery
* Loosens stubborn zippers
* Untangles jewelry chains
* Removes stains from stainless steel sinks
* Removes dirt and grime from bbq grill
* Removes ceramic/terra cotta garden pots from oxidizing
* Removes tomato stains from clothing
* Keeps glass shower doors free of water spots
* Camouflages scratches in ceramic and marble floors
* Keeps scissors working smoothly
* Lubricates noisy door hinges on vehicles and doors in homes
* Lubricates gear shift and mower deck lever for ease of handling on riding mowers
* Lubricates tracks in sticking home windoes and makes them easier to open
* Restores and cleans paddes leather dashboards in vehicles, as well as vinyl bumpers
* Cleans and restores roof racks on vehicles
* Lubricates and stops squeaks in electric fans
* Keeps rust from forming on saw blades and other tools
* Lubricates prosthetic llimbs
* Keeps pigeons off the balcony
* Removes all traces of duct tape
* Removes and cleans Love Bugs (yeah, you Fl people know what these are) from your bumpers
* Use it on fire ant bites...takes the sting away immediately and stops the itch
* Removes crayon from walls (Izzy this one is for you!)
* Use on a distributor cap to displace the moisture and allow the car to start
* Removes black scuff marks on the floor
*****The basic ingredient in WD-40 is Fish Oil

Hope you guys find something in here that you can use.

Probably be easier if he just used paper!
:rolleyes:

lol!

Given the current circumstances, he's probably happy to have walls, doodled on or not!

also:
helps to loosen seized bolts
displaces water from engine heads (sucken snowmobiles/quads)
gets that nasty working on the truck grease off your hands
Redneck aftershave

I use it to untangle my horses manes and to use as a protectant for my saltwater reels and rod guides. Also good on carbon steel around saltwater.

Maybe in years gone by... the WD as of late is barely flamable. I never did hear this though\
