uses WD-40 thanks top a friend who e-mailed me this!



WD-40 Well, Who Knew...?
I had a neighbor who had bought a new pickup. I got up
very early one Sunday morning and saw that someone had
spray painted red all around the sides of this beige
truck (for some unknown reason). I went over, woke him
up, and told him the bad news. He was very upset and
was trying to figure out what to do probably nothing
until Monday morning, since nothing was open. Another
neighbor came out and told him to get his WD-40 and
clean it off. It removed the unwanted paint
beautifully and did not harm his paint job that was on
the truck. I'm impressed! WD-40 who knew?
Water Displacement #40. 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 Corvair 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 stovetop...
Voila! It's now shinier than it's ever been. You'll be
amazed.
