In this video we'll show you 20 amazing ideas with WD-40. Share with your friends these useful ideas!

[@lifeofevents1520]

Please use it with caution. This is powerful chemical, not natural oil or such. If it can do this much hard on superglue, think what it does on your skin or in your lung! Btw, it says on the label that it’s harmful when inhaled or swallowed.

[@nevillegregson348]

My uncle committed suicide by spraying wd40 in some of the nostril holes.

[@van502]

uhm...you do know wd40 is fish oil right? lol

[@koraarnesen9061]

[@66tricky]

@jake canebrake it's mostly Stoddard solution, a petroleum distillate plus mineral oil and other stuff. It damages amorphous plastics such as abs and acrylic. The fish oil thing is an urban myth that even the manufacturer deny on their website. You may find the item you spray it in disintegrates if there are any amorphous plastics in it.

[@rainy82d83]

It's obvious flammable..so what can't u do?.. can it be used near ppl on home O2 ??

@William Lesco really....does it get rid of dried superglue?

[@starmazaheri7448]

lol....I was wondering why you need to actually ''buy'' a WD-40, and wait a few seconds to pop balloons, the easies thing to pop immediately with a tiny pin.

Sadly it would probably have sold much less if it had only been marketed as a balloon popping chemical for professional buzzkills.

[@mlwhite786]

Loved this video!! I always have a can of WD-40 on hand because I know it has many uses. Now, I just learned a few new ones! I use hot glue a lot and am going to give this a try the next time I manage to drip some on my work table. I wanted new knobs on my shower but the old ones simply would not come off. A few sprays of WD did the trick. Every now and then, my computer chair will get a squeak. WD-40 to the rescue. I love that stuff and thanks for more ideas!
