    Great video. I never really thought about it until now but I probably use WD-40 once a week and go through through 4-5 cans per year.
    WD-40 is successful because it works. It hasn't failed me in 30+ years of using it.

    Bloody lifesaver.
    I've used it to loosen a stuck lock, joints on a door, keeps certain insects away, to remove sticky labels, loosen tight nails, it's brilliant stuff. In my DIY tool kit, I have a can of it.

      It’s basically a Swiss Army Knife of lubricants

    Great video. I've never used any of their other products, but I always have a can of WD-40 in my truck, and in my house. The stuff is amazing.

    I'm surprised this video and your channel haven't taken off already. This is excellently put together, researched, edited and narrated, etc.
    I think your work will be recognized by the big RUclips algorithm in the sky soon.

      This product did. I'm glad there's a simple history of it.

    Something that would have been cool is if you mentioned how nasa used the atlas missle, the original use of wd40, as the base of the murcury atlas launch vehicle that was used in the flight of American astronauts in space, as well as the ivory bit being about piano can

    • @TwoBitHistory

      Funny enough, most of that was in the original script, but unfortunately it had to get cut!

    Glad the history of this product is out there. The man that got to play around with it, made it and tweaked it, should get he's credit due where he should.

    Why do I love the smell of WD-40?

    • @TwoBitHistory
      @TwoBitHistory  5 лет назад +8

      Because you are a normal Man. You also love the smell of Gasoline, Road Tar, and Cement.

      @@TwoBitHistory to many channels spreading your focus. The quality of content is suffering.
      I might be wrong and there are different teams working on each channel, but older videos on twobitdavinci has far better cgi and seems better researched.

    I’ve used WD-40 to get fire going in the fire pit so I can burn yard trash. It safer than Diesel and gasoline.

    • @TwoBitHistory
      @TwoBitHistory  5 лет назад

      That’s an interesting use. You spray it on first and then light it? Or are you actually spraying in front of a lighter?

      I can’t remember a time in my 40+ years on this planet, that I haven’t had a can of it in reach. It’s really almost a necessity.

    WD40 was used on the Lost in Space Robot in one episode. Will Robison spayed WD 40 on the Robot to stop a squeak.

    This shit is so bad on metal. Even i was smart enough at 5 to NOT use wd40 on my bike chain. Its best use is for killing wasps
