WD-40 spray is the ultimate lubricant. It's suitable for all things mechanical as well as gardening tools and equipment, battery terminals, spark plugs, bike frames, door locks and hinges, power tools, engines, alloys, exhausts and more. According to WD-40, here are the top ten most popular uses:
- Quiet squeaky hinges
Keep flexible joints lubricated and silent with WD-40® Multi-Use Product. A quick spray will provide squeak relief on automotive doors, windshield wipers, swinging gates, sticking ladders, storm doors, pruning shears, roof ventilators, fire alarm boxes, folding chairs and more. To target smaller hinges, try the WD-40 Smart-Straw. For hard-to-reach squeaks, use WD-40’s Flexible Straw with bendable applicator to deliver lubrication in tight spots.
- Keep vehicles looking brand new
Did you know WD-40® Multi-Use Product can keep your car, truck or RV cleaner, longer? A thin layer of the product can keep mud and debris from sticking to your vehicle, helping extend the time between washes. Spray it over all vehicle surfaces to repel grime, lubricate parts and deter rust.
- Pre-soak nuts and bolts
Keep WD-40 Multi-Use on-hand to make every shop or garage project easier. Soak nuts and bolts in a WD-40 bath before use. The deep lubrication will make assembly a breeze—and make removal or replacement simpler later on. Pre-soaking will also help guard nuts and bolts against rust.
- Unstick stubborn parts
Don’t let a stuck bolt slow down your work. Use WD-40 to break up oxidation and corrosion. Spray onto the bonded parts and wait a few minutes to let the WD-40 dissolve and penetrate corrosion before loosening. For precise jobs, use the WD-40 Smart-Straw’s targeted stream. You can lubricate hard to reach bolts with the Flexible Straw. It allows you to get the product exactly where it is needed.
- Lubricate moving components
WD-40 keeps life moving smoothly. If a part needs to rotate, spin, slide, turn, lift, zip, open, close, hinge (or more!), spray it and let it do its penetrating work. Mower and saw blades, dolly wheels, garage door rollers, pulleys and chains—if it’s got to move, keep it lubricated.
- Prevents rust
Tools or parts exposed to the rain, or humidity? Spray thoroughly with WD-40 then wipe clean to help prevent rust. Soak greasy, grimy tools to ensure they are ready to use for the next project.
- Maintain expensive tools
Don’t lose money replacing tools that can be restored with regular use of WD-40. Regularly spray and wipe metal hand tools to repel grime and lubricate joints. Use the Smart-Straw’s easily aimable stream to drive out moisture and lubricate precision machinery and power tools.
- Keep athletic gear in top condition
Bring your a-game with WD-40. Spray on cleats and spikes to keep them from getting clogged with mud, turf and dirt. Break in new baseball mitts by rubbing some WD-40 into the leather. It can even keep golf clubs polished and primed for play.
- Soften weather stripping
Prevent drying and cracking with regular application of WD-40. Apply generously to weather stripping and rubber car door seals to keep the material pliant and your ride warm and dry.
- Shine stainless steel
Fingerprints dulling your appliances, shelving and other stainless-steel surfaces? WD-40 can transform kitchens, shops and garages from smudged-up to just-like-new. Spray a little on a cloth, wipe the stainless steel, and then stand back to admire the shine.
