Two great inventions are duct tape and WD-40. If something moves and isn't supposed to, use the duct tape. If it is supposed to move but doesn't, use WD-40. Here's a list of some of the other things WD-40 has been used for:
~Protects silver from tarnishing
~Cleans and lubricates guitar strings
~Gets oil spots off concrete driveways
~Gives floors that 'just-waxed' sheen without making it slippery (a little goes a long way)
~Keeps flies off cows
~Restores and cleans chalkboards
~Removes lipstick stains
~Loosens stubborn zippers
~Untangles jewelry chains
~Removes stains from stainless steel sinks
~Removes dirt and grime from the barbecue grill
~Keeps ceramic/terra cotta garden pots from oxidizing
~Removes tomato stains from clothing
~Keeps glass shower doors free of water spots. If yours is plastic, it works just as well as glass.
~Camouflages scratches in ceramic and marble floors
~Keeps scissors working smoothly
~Lubricates noisy door hinges on vehicles and doors in homes
~Gives a children's play gym slide a shine for a super fast slide
~Lubricates gear shift and mower-deck lever for ease of handling on riding mowers
~Rids rocking chairs and swings of squeaky noises
~Lubricates tracks in sticking home windows and makes them easier to open
~Spraying an umbrella stem makes it easier to open and close
~Restores and cleans padded leather dashboards and vinyl bumpers
~Restores and cleans roof racks on vehicles
~Lubricates and stops squeaks in electric fans
~Lubricates wheel sprockets on tricycles, wagons, and bicycles for easy handling
~Lubricates fan belts on washers and dryers and keeps them running smoothly
~Keeps rust from forming on saws and saw blades, and other tools
~Removes splattered grease on stove
~Shines stovetops
~Keeps bathroom mirror from fogging
~Lubricates prosthetic limbs
~Keeps pigeons off the balcony
~Removes all traces of duct tape
~Relieve arthritis pain in arms, hands, and knees
~Cleans and removes love bugs from grills and bumpers
~Protects the Statue of Liberty from the elements.
~WD-40 attracts fish. Spray a LITTLE on live bait or lures and you will be catching the big one in no time.
~Keeps away chiggers on the kids
LOVE this post! Am going to steal it danged near verbatim later tonight, probably, altho I'll give you credit. Am smack dab in the middle of a bridge tournament (knockouts) right now, and our team qualified to go on to the next round. (Just HAD to come home between sessions to get away from my partner's seemingly incessant need to rehash every hand unnecessarily. I have to have a break between hands and between rounds, and this was the only way I could get one.)
