WD40

[Wild one]

Has anybody heard anything about the old original WD40 being discontinued.My neighbour was mentioning it last night.
If so i'm gonna have to stock up,as it's still one of the best things i've found for taking rubber off the 1/4 panels after a night at the track.

Let's all bow down and thank our glorious sh|t-for-brains PM for solving all our real issues in Canada.

Yes, I've heard about it being discontinued, it's a great water displacer, and dries up a flooded engine, carb or efi just spray it in the intake of into the spark plug hole!!!

Fascinating Facts - WD-40 Company

Six fascinating facts about WD-40 Company

www.wd40company.com

Working in a small lab in San Diego, California, it took Rocket Chemical Company’s founders 40 attempts to get their water displacing formula worked out. But they must have got it right in a big way, because the original secret formula for WD-40® – which stands for Water Displacement perfected on the 40th try—is still in use today.

I use WD-40 for Starter Fluid on Carbureted engines
I have used diesel fuel or WD-40 as products to take off things like tire gunk, a bit of road tar, etc.
I also use WD-40, when an engine has not been rotated for awhile, i pull the Spark Plugs, spray a stream of WD-40 into each cylinder & rotate the engine so that lubricant coats the cylinder walls

If you read the statement from WD-40 it reads as if they have reformulated their products to meet the new Canadian rules. They don't say that directly but they also didn't say their products remain unchanged. Whether this changes the behaviors of their product or not will have to be seen.

One thing for sure, the US won't be far behind.

I knew a guy who sprayed WD-40 on his sore joints and muscles… true story. I’ve personally used it as attractive scent on salmon lures when down rigging.

Discontinued, No. Its being/been reformulated so it isnt banned in Canada who have some rules about aerosols. I have read Good ol CA has adopted the same regulations as Canada so i guess is has been reforumalted for the US as well?

Fun fact: WD 40 got its name for its meaning of Water Displacement prefected on the 40th formula try.
