WD-40 who knew?
Water Displacement Project #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..

the moisture and allow the car to start.

a rag to wipe away the grease - works great every time! >
