WD-40 (Interesting Uses)

According to what I've heard, Earl Scruggs always put a little of his hair tonic on his banjo strings before he played the banjo. Not sure what kind of hair tonic he used.

as far as using wd 40 on guitars,,,,the petroleum distillates are not good for the wood nor its finishes...Finger Ease is a silicone based product I think...I prefer baby powder on the back of a finished (polyurathane) neck....smells good too!!!!

I got that email a few weeks ago and thought, wow!, but I just filed it for "later".
My sil sends tons of emails that are too good to be true.

You can fix anything with WD-40 and duct tape.

If it is supposed to move and doesn't--- use WD-40

If it moves and is not supposed to-----use duct tape

WD-40 was outstanding in Iraq on my M-4.

Cleans and lubricates very well, without attracting as much dust as CLP.

Of course, we were advised to not use WD-40, but I think that the military higher ups make things more difficult than what they have to be just because.



I would NEVER put WD-40 on a burn, that goes against all common sense.

All that and no saving virtue in WD-40...what-a-waste
