Watch 7 more strange uses of WD-40 here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nZOclNCHq5vKgKc.htmlsi=D9fs6J09Rmkj-Rkv

I would highly recommend that no one use this for cleaning floors unless you want to go see a chiropractor for your back when you go ass up

I am a professional carpet cleaner. Using WD 40 on normal stains isn't going to work but we use it on oil or grease stains all the time with GREAT results! I had a customer call me after she just had a brand new trailer home set up and one of the movers brought in grease on their boots. Brand new carpet with lots of grease stains on it. We got them out with a scrub and WD40 and it looked brand new again :) Good luck!

wd-40 can't make your knuckle half its size

I coat my shovels with WD40 before every winter. When I shovel snow it slides right off.

I like WD for squeaks of course, but also for shining the stainless steel kitchen sink. Clean sink first then dry. Baby oil also works for polishing the sink, but does not last as long. Thanks for the review. 😀

I noticed that for many of your experiments you sprayed on WD40 and immediately wiped it, so of course it didn’t work. I can tell you that tape WILL come off surfaces, such as a fridge, if you give it time to soak in. Also, sometimes you need to use a hard edged tool for lifting paint etc, rather than just a cloth. Would have loved to see you try to clean a toilet with WD40. You said why bother when there are other cleaners. However, it might be a good substitute if you run out, and if it does work it would save you having to buy toilet cleaning products.

You need a regular wash rag (terrycloth, cotton, etc) to clean off decal/tape residue. Paper towel and microfiber cloth doesn't do that very well.

My windows sometimes gets stuck, mostly in winter , I live in Austria, the weather is cold and wet in winter , it safed me from sitting with a stuck open window in the middle of the night, I love it.

The problem with the paint on the board removal is that latex paint takes at least 21 days to completely bond and cure to any surface much less or glossy piece of paneling. A better test would’ve been too sand the wood first to rough it up then do your test.

I use WD40 to clean the stickers & glue from glass & plastic bottles , clean cars wiper blades , Remove Rusty screws, clean Road tar from Vehicle, Remove bird poop on car, clean head lamp and a fire starter.

Well it was designed as a water dispersant. That’s the way I understood. There were other formulas. WD 40 was number “ 40” of the formula. Yes it has other uses as many other chemical compounds do, however it was originally designed for water dispersant.

In the old days of incandescent bulbs that got hot, WD helped to keep the metal screw thread from sticking…

best rust removal is soak it in vinegar for 24 hrs . falls off. also wd 40 is used for plastic car trims to make them black again. eg bumpers.

This use for WD40 is a bit like feeding strawberries to pigs! Kerosene is a regular product used in industry when machining aluminium, as it stops material sticking to cutting tools and cools the tool and the job. However, not many of us keep a supply of kerosene. I flatly refuse to believe that any handyman worth the title, doesn’t have a can or two of WD40 in his tool kit. WD40, etc is the perfect substitute for kero and, being in a pressure pack, is far more convenient to use. So next time you’re drilling or cutting aluminium, give the drill bit or hacksaw blade a regular squirt of WD40.

Your house must smell like a mechanics garage, maybe that is why the person in the background was coughing.

I don't understand even trying with vinyl to test whether it can clean grout. They're completely different materials that have nothing to do with each other except that we've made vinyl flooring that looks like tiles & grout. Also, with the paint on wood - I'd have liked to see an attempt to remove the non-treated side by peeling prior to applying the WD-40.

Good video. Thanks for posting. I use it a lot for cleaning my hand when I get grease or paint on them. Leaves the hands not dried up like many hand cleaners. With the salty roads up here, every fall, I spray all the under-hood wiring & connectors on my truck with the WD40. Helps prevent moisture. WD - Water Dispersing, 40 - 40th formula. Best Regards - Mike

The rust removal WD-40 can do is useful for things like cleaning off rusty bolts (on a car, e.g.) as you're working with them. Not only does it help get them unstuck, it cleans off some of the surface rust to make reassembly easier. (In my experience, anyway.) I wouldn't expect it to remove that much rust. Another use for WD-40 that fits with its original water-displacing function is preventing door locks and moving parts from freezing in winter! Now we have fobs to unlock our car doors, but I used to use the red straw to spray WD-40 into the keyhole every winter (as needed), and apply it to latches & other parts, like the handle, that might freeze shut.

Used it to soften and remove old silicone sealant around bath and shower when replacing seal.

Removing sticky residue left after removing stick-on label from glass.

I played bass for a 75 year old blues guitar player who regularly sprayed WD-40 into his amplifier jack to “make the lectricity move better”.

Oh, this is brilliant. Thanks! My friend's piano got covered in paint recently. Going to give this a go.

Great tips!! Love the video🎉

To remove tape sticky residue you have to let the WD sit for a minute, then wipe. I use it for that kind of sticky stuff all the time. It works. The "string trick" posted many times on KZfaq will romve the ring. Had to do that before getting an MRI. It worked. Didn't know about the dried paint trick. THANKS! Do NOT use on floors or tubs...too slick/unsafe.

Hello, NEWEST FRIEND! I really appreciate this video. I will definitely try this on my mirror. I wonder if it would work on car glass?

Hi. You should allow the cleaner a chance to work. You need to let it set for 1-2 minutes and then try it. Most people, myself included spray and wipe down right away. It has to sit to get the best results.

Tell me your experience with WD40.

If you spray it on your bait it's supposed to make you catch more fish

I use GT85 for lubing locks and also cleaning my motorbike's drive chain. It has teflon in it and won't ruin the rubber seals. I'm not sure if you folks in America can still buy it over there though.

I've used WD-40 for squeaky hinges on a screen door. But I have also used PAM for that too. On the refrigerator door, you might have better luck with hand sanitizer, or just use whatever cleaner the manufacturer recommends.

Eases pain and increases mobility in arthritic joints especially hands and knees. Has something to do with the fish oil thats one of wd40s ingredients

Polish stainless steel appliances with cooking oil. Put a few drops on a dry cloth and polish it on. Works a treat, no toxic chemicals on cooking appliances and no visible fingerprints again. When you need to wipe up spills just wash as normal and reapply.

Im a mechanic, diy man and i use it to clean my hands before soap and water, works fantastic especially on paint

Removing roof tar on hands and tools. Spot killer of termites.

Just as it removed the stickiness from your fingers, it will remove sticky adhesives from your stainless steel refrigerator, you just needed to give it a little more time to dissolve the adhesive and rub a little more. 😂

I’ve been told that regularly wiping your windshield wipers down with WD40 will make them last much longer. Also they actually make kickstands for wipers so they are not constantly bent and dry out like that. I doubt most people would take the time to oil their wipers though.

WD 40 evaporates fast. Will let things rust . So it is an ongoing job to keep the WD on the metal.

Beingnthat WD40 is a lubricant, it's likely to work on whatever lubricant ps work on. It's easy to apply. And letting it penetrate whike using the right tools with it, it works on some of the issues whike not others. Grout is different from vinyl and if just using it grout without spillover onto tile will probably keep your floor from being slipery. So youd really have to test it on grout to confirm or deny. Also, fir stains, it always depends on the type of stain, the surface where the stain is, and the necessary tools and applications including the number if them to test the accuracy of the claims. But thanks for this. It's always great to find people who vet the claims of any product.

How do you remove the smell of wd-40 from the stuff you spray it on? (I used to like the wd-40 oder, but nowadays it makes me nauseous due to allergies.)

I just used to polish damaged black plastic

I've sprayed it on a plastic fishing worm and caught a 6 pound bass.

Walleye fisherman checking in, you forgot us.

I believe they change the Ingredients from what it used to be to what it is now

Interesting Video 👍 but I wouldn't use this stuff on my skin. It cause inflammation on the skin and the aerosols potentially makes ppl drowsy

I've used it to clean vynil records with a soft toothbrush.

I am regularly cleaning the rubber strips of my vehicle's wiper blades. The blades are working like new ones.

I use WD40 on the underside of my mower deck. That grass that gets stuck to it is horrible. I scrapped it all off and saw some rust. I sprayed the whole underside to help stop the rust. When I took the blades off to sharpen them the next spring, there was almost no grass stuck on the bottom. So, I spray it every spring.

A mistake I've seen a few times is people spraying it into noisy bearings ( extractor fans for example ) , it disolves the grease and makes matters worse. WD40 make a silicon version that actually lubricates.

I have used WD40 to spray on Wasps nests, works well, I have also used it to clean Toilets. On the boat I use it when the Diesel hesitates to start, one squirt in the intake while cranking makes it fire right up.

I've heard shaving cream works well for keeping your mirror from fogging

Hello, can i use it as self defence spray? In stead of pepper spray? In my country we may not have pepper spray in our car or pockets. Thanks!

I can confirm it will remove tar cuts right thru that nasty stuff

Never had no trouble removing scotch tape or cellotape residue from items using WD40, let it soak in for a while rub with a cloth and it comes off easily.

It is useful to remove rusted screws .

My grandmother used WD40 for her arthritis! She was convinced it helped.

The fridge needed to soak, but Goo Gone wins the day for tape and sticker residue. WD is a Jack of all and Master of none. It was created to put a temporary rust and moisture inhibitor on war planes in storage. Hose 'em down and put 'em up. The forty refers to the number of formula attempts it took to get right.

The WD stands for 'Water Displacement' - and that's exactly what it does. I've met guys who swore it helped with their arthritis. I don't think it's a good idea to coat your hands with a bunch of chemicals, but Ok. Thanks for showing us this!

Tape residue on fridge: Goo Gone

I spray my fishing lures with WD-40. Fish go crazy over it!

It’s not meant to clean stainless steel. It’s meant to restore stainless steel. First clean your refrigerator off completely with Windex let it dry and then apply the WD-40 to the stainless steel. It will keep any little oxidation rust spots from developing and also will keep fingerprints and food from sticking to the surface. So clean your fridge, then use the WD-40. It works flawlessly.

You are supposed to spray and give it a few minutes to work,

WD-40 is just to expensive for most uses.

Use it on the head lights of your car to make them all clear again!

You should let it sit longer before wiping off.

I like to try but I can't I had lung problem once I inhaled this WD40 my chest became tight.And days pass before I feel ok again.

It’s also a great flame starter for fire pits and wood/charcoal BBQs.🔥

Shaving foam against mirror steaming works as well..aalso in car

From Europe here, Ireland. A tiny little canister. They are much bigger here. Just an observation.

Give dwelltime on the tape, then agitate. You need to use a clean rag, sir

I fog on my engine bay and wip it down makes look like new.

Only one tip I would use and that's spraying my shovel with it!!

I have even heard that you can spray it on your knuckles to ease arthritis,,,?

Windex will clean a SS refrigerator just as well without the fumes.

I wouldn't want my fridge or sink smelling like WD-40

Mate you spray then use it straight away sometimes you got to let it settle in for a time

WD-40 was not even created as a lubricant, but as a rust-prevention solvent for Atlas missile outer skins.

Works on fire ant stings

1:17 make the ring rotate while you try remove that... i can remove my ring before

That paint would have peeled of with or without wd40

Leave on icebox sticking stuff awhile it will work

If stung by fire ants, just spray some WD40 on it and the itch and sting will be gone for three days. If it starts itching again, give it another short spray.

A little less rumble in the back ground

You need to give it some time to have effect.

You need to allow time for the wd40 to penetrate … it does a lot.

Have to leave the wd40 on the tape for more than a few seconds.

Bro hold atleast 1min

it looks like WD-40 is obsolete and they try to sell some more before dying. it's a Water Dispersant - 40th recepe. i guess it's not really the 40th but sounds better. spray it on your fishing bait.

It's not a rust penetrant.

Of course, Instant spray and wipe doesn’t work. Spray and wait - let the chemical do it’s job.

Wd 40 and sand paper is the rust trick not a rag

WD40 is the best product for everything from water dispersant to flamethrower WD40😁

WD Stands for Water Deterrent

If you're going to try WD-40 for carpet stains, spray it on, gently rub it in with gloved fingers, leave it for at least 10 minutes, then spray it generously with water from a mister bottle, and rub it with a clean white cotton cloth. Or buy some proper carpet cleaner, and follow the instructions! Lol

Try wd 40 on bait when fishing.

The idea isn't to clean the toilet with WD-40. It is to spray a clean, dry bowl and it keeps things from sticking. You could have done that as a demonstration. Sprayed the bowl, then dropped a deuce, flushed, and showed the results. Not very comprehensive.

WD 40 can cure rheumatism .

I spray my porridge at breakfast with WD40 every morning EXCEPT wednesday - but that's because I'M strange ! What's wrong with wednesday ? Weird.
