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.

Here are some of the uses:

1) Protects silver from tarnishing.
2) Removes road tar and grime from cars.
3) Cleans and lubricates guitar strings.
4) Gives floors that 'just-waxed' sheen without making it
slippery.
5) Keeps flies off cows.
6) Restores and cleans chalkboards.
7) Removes lipstick stains.
8) Loosens stubborn zippers.
9) Untangles jewelry chains.
10) Removes stains from stainless steel sinks.
11) Removes dirt and grime from the barbecue grill.
12) Keeps ceramic/terra cotta garden pots from oxidizing.
13) Removes tomato stains from clothing.
14) Keeps glass shower doors free of water spots.
15) Camouflages scratches in ceramic and marble floors.
16) Keeps scissors working smoothly.
17) Lubricates noisy door hinges on vehicles and doors in homes
18) It removes black scuff marks from the kitchen floor! Use WD-40 for those nasty tar and scuff marks on flooring. It doesn't seem to harm the finish and you won't have to scrub nearly as hard to get them off. Just remember to open some windows if you have a lot of marks.
19) Bug guts will eat away the finish on your car if not removed quickly! Use WD-40!
20) Gives a children's play gym slide a shine for a super fast
slide.
21) Lubricates gear shift and mower deck lever for ease of
handling on riding mowers.
22) Rids kids rocking chairs and swings of squeaky noises.
23) Lubricates tracks in sticking home windows and makes them easier to open.
24) Spraying an umbrella stem makes it easier to open and close.
25) Restores and cleans padded leather dashboards in vehicles, as well as vinyl bumpers.
26) Restores and cleans roof racks on vehicles.
27) Lubricates and stops squeaks in electric fans.
28) Lubricates wheel sprockets on tricycles, wagons, and bicycles for easy handling.
29) Lubricates fan belts on washers and dryers and keeps them running smoothly.
30) Keeps rust from forming on saws and saw blades, and other tools.
31) Removes splattered grease on stove.
32) Keeps bathroom mirror from fogging.
33) Lubricates prosthetic limbs.
34) Keeps pigeons off the balcony (they hate the smell).
35) Removes all traces of duct tape.
36) Folks even spray it on their arms, hands, and knees to relieve arthritis pain.
37) Florida's favorite use is: "cleans and removes love bugs from grills and bumpers."
38) The favorite use in the state of New York WD-40 protects theStatue 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. Also, it's a lot cheaper than the chemical attractants that are made for just that purpose. Keep in mind though, using some chemical laced baits or lures for fishing are not allowed in some states.
40) Use it for 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) Also, if you've discovered that your teenage daughter has 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 sprayed WD-40 on the distributor cap, it would displace the moisture and allow the car to start.

P . S. The basic ingredient is FISH OIL.

P. P. S. Keep a can of WD-40 in the 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.
 
Water Displacement, Formula 40:flipoff2:

I suppose that is why it helps prevent scarring.
I BELIEVE there are actually 100+ uses for WD-40
 
DON'T use it as a lube to protect firearms.Since it evaporates over time,it will leave the metal unprotected over time.There is a product that the Germans developed during ww1 that is real good and is 100 percent natural.It's called Ballistol.Developed for weapons,it's still being made today.I swear by it for firearms.Now for everything else,either 3n1 or WD40.
 
Anyone ever tried #33? That's a pretty awesome list there.
 
if you don't have any gojo you can use it to clean your hands, it'll take all the grease and whatnot off, might not smell as purtty as gojo afterward but at least your hand isnt black and stained anymore

All those using wd40 for injuries gives me ideas, im gonna start spraying myself with wd40 everytime i hurt myself to see if it gets any better. $20 says if you mix it with Duct tape and JB weld it'll stop prufuse bleeding from a severed artery :driver:

According to a certian greek family man....Windex is also good for wounds..:bounce2:
 
Spray it in your distributor cap after hitting mud pits doing mach6 and spraying water on the top of your engine. I, um, heard it worked, never tried it myself, um, yeah...
 
i use it to keep my stainless steel fridge and dishwasher looking shiny and new :)
