WD-40 -- fun facts Sign In

Ken East (one of the original founders) says there is nothing in WD-40 that would hurt you...'It is made from fish oil.'

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. Then try it on your stovetop. It is now shinier than it has ever been before.

37) Florida 's favorite use: 'cleans and removes Love Bugs from grills and bumpers.'

38) Protects the Statue of 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.

40) 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 wipe with a clean rag.

42) If you've washed and dried a tube of lipstick with a load of laundry,
saturate the lipstick spots with WD-40 and re-wash.. Presto! Lipstick is gone!

43) If you spray WD-40 on the distributor cap, it will displace the moisture and allow the car to start.

44) Add a match to make a great flamethrower.

Keep a can of WD-40 in your kitchen cabinet over the stove. It is good for
oven burns or any other type of burn. It takes the burned feeling away and
heals with NO scarring.

Remember, the basic ingredient is FISH OIL!
