Lithium grease works great for metal parts, but it's messy. I use interior detailer on everything that moves and doesn't. No smell (like silicone) or mess. Lasts a long time.
WD40 is truly an amazing product. Here's another use that saved me a headache when garage door would not close, spray it on the rollers and problem is instantly solved. Pro Tip; I also use it as a cooking spray. It keeps food from sticking to the pan.
I have to disagree on the lugnuts. This is a case where WD-40 is too good. They should never be lubricated. It makes them more susceptible to unintended loosening. Get them off with even steady pressure from a cheater bar, then just use anti-seize compound when you put them back on instead.
Little history. In 1953, Rocket Chemical Company and its staff of three began research in a small lab in San Diego, California to create a line of rust-prevention solvents and degreasers for use in the aerospace industry. After 40 attempts to get the water-displacing formula worked out, they perfected the original secret formula for WD-40® Multi-Use Product-which stands for Water Displacement perfected on the 40th try. This amazing formula is still in use today. Convair, an aerospace contractor, first used WD-40 to protect the outer skin of the Atlas Missile from rust and corrosion. Because it worked so well, employees snuck some WD-40 cans out of the plant to use at home. A few years later, Rocket Chemical Company founder Norm Larsen experimented with putting WD-40 into aerosol cans, reasoning that consumers might use the product at home just as the Convair employees had. WD-40 Multi-Use Product made its first appearance on store shelves in San Diego in 1958. In 1960 the company nearly doubled in size, growing to seven people. This team sold an average of 45 cases per day from the trunks of their cars to hardware and sporting goods stores in the San Diego area. In 1961 the first full truckload order for WD-40 was filled when employees came in on a Saturday to produce additional concentrate to meet the disaster needs of the victims of Hurricane Carla along the U.S. Gulf coast. WD-40 was used to recondition flood- and rain-damaged vehicles and equipment. WD-40 was starting to get a bit lonely as the only product, so in 1995, WD-40 Company acquired the 100-year-old brand 3-IN-ONE® Oil from Reckitt & Coleman. 3-IN-ONE, with its precise applicator spout, made a wonderful match for WD-40. After 50 years, WD-40 Company proudly introduced BLUE WORKS®-a line of industrial grade, specialty maintenance products that surpass industry standards and deliver superior performance under the toughest conditions. Now, WD-40 Company is proud to introduce WD-40® Specialist®, a line of superior performing specialty maintenance products designed to meet specific needs of professional users. I've been selling WD40 for 37 years never had a complaint about the product. I also use it, it works great.
i have complaint of it, the aerosol gas will finish first before the wd40 liquid.. what a waste to throw it with the liquid still lot in the cans... every cans i bought here in malaysia will last that ways... now im fedup and never been use wd40 anymore, i been change to selleys product... for me selleys is better in quality on uses..
I've been using WD-40 on and in my car locks for nearly 40 years. The new cans with the "Smart Straws" don't always fit. I have a couple of older cans that I keep just for the locks. Water, from car washes, can get in and freeze up in winter. This will displace it. Because of doing this, I've never had a problem.
I've never used WD40 in my car locks and have also never had a problem in 45 years of owning cars. However, if you do choose to use WD40, it will clear out the water, but it will also de-lubricate. Follow up the WD 40 with some lubricant. Graphite is best for locks.
MY TOP 5 WD40 TIPS. WD40 - spray on knee joints to help arthitus. WD40 - spray on back door if stuck. WD40 - spray in eyes for hayfever. WD40 - spray in trainers to stop smells. WD40 - spray in ears to stop tinnitus.
The doors rust out because water gets in the door inbetween the window and the window rubber on the outside. The door begins to rust because there is no paint on the inside of the door... just bare metal making it easy for it to rust. If you take your door panel off and flexseal the bottom of the inside of the door, then it will last longer without rusting.
"they get rusty for no reason" ha. How about: water, possibly even salty water, accumulates and sits in those low areas, hence, rust. Otherwise, thanks for the video. Good info, efficient presentation. Some people say not to use WD40 on locks because it collects dirt and grime.
Only if you wash under there really good first, get all dirt and grime off. Then you're best off buying the WD-40 by the gallon and using your own sprayer, preferably a pressurized one. You mainly need to hit up the areas of concern and when you do, make sure you soak it well and allow it to sit over night before you wipe anything down. It will absorb to a certain degree to the micropores. That's exactly how it works to free up stuck parts as well. And yes it does work, you should reapply every few years. Some people actually spray down the empty space at the bottom of their doors below where the window glass sits and allow a fair amount of the WD-40 to accumulate down there. Apparently it has worked very well for them to prevent those areas (bottom of doors) from rusting out since many times it's water accumulating inside the door panel (condensation & drip-down from rolling windows up/down when wet) you can check out videos from people who've done it and hand good results.
@@matthewellis9885 Ranger owner here, 2010 Sport. Ext. Cab. The only thing wrong with mine is that the Drivers side rocker panels kick strip is rusted to fuck. Minor job to do, and a couple years back I had to replace a 3/8" coolant hose next to the throttle body. Excellent Trucks imo. Owned since new....
@@lsdleighssilverdesigns8809 Nice! I like the ranger. I think the old Fords in the UK had a bad name because they weren't rust treated very well and rotted to pieces. Especially with our wet roads and cold winters coupled with salt on the road in the ice. Newer cars are built better
@@matthewellis9885 yeah, Nova Scotia weather is just like the UK. Salty shitty roads , lol. But my truck is doing good, only 103K on it. Few rock chips, but paint is decent(Black). Car audio in its worth more than the truck, lol.
NEVER use standard wd40 in your ignition! Use the silicone lubricant one. I did this on my volvo, it cleaned out all the grease in the lock and the lock seased up, I had to buy a new lock and get the keys recoded.
Actually.....you shouldn't use it on ANY types of locks, period. Use graphite to lube ALL locks. (Rub a pencil on a piece of paper building up a pile of the lead. Take your key and run it through the lead pile then insert key into lock) If a lock is stuck, use brake cleaner to get it moving again; NOT WD-40. WD-40 + dirt = a big sticky, gooey & tacky blob. It's almost the consistency of wet cement glue.
need a wisdom tooth taken out a squirt a of wd 40 , having a triple by pass a squirt of wd 40 , having a baby and not yet fully dilated maybe two squirts of wd 40 , a broken collar bone from playing foot ball a squirt of 40 , touching the dogs arse and he bites you a squirt of wd 40 , caught giving the neighbours wife a rim job a squirt of wd 40 on your toes when her husband comes home early .
1 is wrong. It will clog locks if you end up adding dust,dirt and lint etc from your pocket or bag everytime you put your key in the door or ignition. 2 also bad idea as wd40 breaks down the pre existing grease which is on your door mechanisms
I was going to say you only know this because you have a Ford but then you mentioned that on the last one. I'm willing to bet that your next car will be something besides a Ford and you will no longer need WD40 laying around the house.
Mcfgotmillk I'll take a Ford GT but other than that their f-150 is really their only model that they worked all the bugs out of but like you said they rust.
Tbh mines a 2007 and I dont really have any rust. My dad had a 1998 ford f350 and it was just a tad rusty. But the wd40 is just a video to teach. I dont ready use it on my car at all.
Mcfgotmillk Allgood my brother. I love motorcycles. I love cars. I've had a few I've needed to do everything you said in your wonderful video. I really enjoy your videos and love to see you in a koenigsegg or a lambo one day. Take care. : )
I remember back in the 80’s those old timers use to buy this shit by the case to spray the undercarriages of there vehicles! That’s why you don’t see a old timer with a rust bucket!
The problem of WD40 is that is harsh on rubber. So all the rubber bushings... wear faster in contact with WD40. The only WD40 i would use specially on plastics and rubber is the WD40 PTFE.
Yeah ... no. You realize oil-based lubricants attract dirt and particles and eventually cause wear and failure in sealed mechanical systems, right? People use WD-40 in all those situations you suggested, but it's not the most effective product for any of them. Great work making a video giving really bad advice.

Lithium grease collects dirt. Put up with the smell of silicone, as it's a much better choice for anything exposed to dust and dirt.
I have used it to dry out a wet distributor cap at the carwash many times.
WD40 is truly an amazing product. Here's another use that saved me a headache when garage door would not close, spray it on the rollers and problem is instantly solved.
Pro Tip; I also use it as a cooking spray. It keeps food from sticking to the pan.
Make sure you follow it up with a silicone lubricant. WD40 is a great product that everyone should have, but it's not a lubricant.
I have to disagree on the lugnuts. This is a case where WD-40 is too good. They should never be lubricated. It makes them more susceptible to unintended loosening. Get them off with even steady pressure from a cheater bar, then just use anti-seize compound when you put them back on instead.
True. I actually use brake cleaner to make sure the nuts and bolts are grease free.
Good if your selling your car, but have scratches on the paint, quick spray over the scratches and wipe, it hides the scratches.

I know you have to be joking. But there are people dumb enough to try those things.

The door begins to rust because there is no paint on the inside of the door... just bare metal making it easy for it to rust. If you take your door panel off and flexseal the bottom of the inside of the door, then it will last longer without rusting.
P.s. There are drains in the door to let the water out... be sure to not plug them or your door will begin to hold water.
Try blaster that's my go to lubricant, spray it on any rusted parts and you will never go back to WD40.
Excellent
Can also be used as a replacement for any Ann Summers lubrication product,
although perhaps not to everyone’s taste....

is it a good idea to undercoat your car once in a while with WD-40 to prevent it from rust & corrosion?

Does it not damage the car's paint? Im planning to use wd 40 to get rid of the sticker residue.

My car window stopped rolling up so I used WD40 inside the door window and now it is good .I was told I needed a new window motor but I didn't
I use WD-40 Silicone on the sides of the window track to keep them rolling up and down smoothly.
Obrigado
NEVER use standard wd40 in your ignition! Use the silicone lubricant one.
I did this on my volvo, it cleaned out all the grease in the lock and the lock seased up, I had to buy a new lock and get the keys recoded.
Excellent
good day, I just want to ask if its safe to use the wd-40 silicone spray on the sidewall of the car tires?
@@brothernero8428 I wouldn't use anything that stays slippery near the tyres! You can get a gel that dyes and dries to a gloss for tyres.

"Make sure your key lock is nice and good".......... TF does that mean...
Question ....
The last time for what u use ??
I didn't understand 🤔
The key well is defenitly one of my most memorable uses of WD40.
Bad iodea to use on ignition switch ,i did once and the starter motor would not release ubtill i removed battery conection.
Hey bro..... What you are using to clean up your car interior?
I bunch of stuff, I'll put a list together
Can we use it on rusty windshield

This video is very helpful. Thank you ☺️
You can also use it to clean sweaty feet , when they are Abraham Lincoln. (Stinking)

Just be careful with that stuff near the maf sensor.Spray it on that and you will need to replace it.!!

It is use for power window for smooth up down ?
No. Wd40 will destroy the rubber weather seal
WD washes all the Grease in the door locks.
get rusty for no reason for some reason?
Use as a replacement for air freshener.....
it doesnt protect from rust and it doesnt lubricate or clean.
