Known as the "can with a thousand uses," WD-40 is an all-purpose lubricant that helps you fight rust and corrosion. This 12-ounce can features a brand-new design with a permanently attached straw--so you won't have to worry about losing the little red straw ever again! Using WD-40, you'll be able to eliminate rust, penetrate hard-to-reach areas, dissolve adhesives, silence squeaky hinges, and more.

"This will save a load of time and money!" - Mike, plumber

A Proven Lubricant Formula
Invented in 1953, WD-40 uses a unique and reliable formula that purges grease, grime, and rust from any hard surface. It works by displacing moisture, effectively shielding metal against water and other corrosive elements. WD-40 can also function as a stain remover, and it is able to eat through annoying adhesives and stickers. The lubricant is powerful and only takes a small amount to work, ensuring that your 12-ounce can will last you a long time.

"WD-40. There's Always Another Use®" WD-40 has gained a reputation for its versatile range of uses. It can be used in a multitude of household applications, including: Do-It-Yourself Home Improvement: A can of WD-40 is an essential part of any DIY toolbox. Use it to lubricate squeaky hinges, clean barbeque grills, free up sticky mechanisms, and protect your tools from harmful rust. Gardening: WD-40 helps make tilling, planting, weeding, and many other gardening tasks easier. If you're working in moist soil, lubricate your tools after you're done to help protect them and increase their life span. Electronics: Since WD-40's formula displaces moisture, it can help quickly dry out electrical systems to eliminate moisture-induced short circuits. Sports and Recreation: If you're a fisherman, cyclist, pool shark, or anything in between, you know that rust can get in the way of your fun. WD-40 helps you better maintain your equipment: use it to lubricate your gears, de-rust your bike chains, and avoid costly repairs. Automotive: WD-40 helps you keep your car in peak condition. Use it to remove grease and grime from your bumpers, penetrate stuck lug nuts, and prevent rust from blemishing your paint job.

Convenient New Can Design
The WD-40 can has been designed with convenience in mind, and it allows for simple one-handed operation. Better yet, the design has been revised to prevent loss of the red straw. The straw is now permanently attached to the can by a hinge, making your WD-40 experience easier than ever. To get a wide-arcing spray, simply push the hinge down to remove the straw. If you're doing precision work, shift the hinge back up and use the straw for a more focused stream.

Never Lose the Straw Again® Sprays just like regular WD-40, with and without the straw.

Product Description

The WD-40 multi-use spray with Smart Straw contains 12 oz. of lubricant that can be applied to almost any item to reduce friction and protect metal from rust and other corrosion. With over 2,000 documented uses, WD-40 is also commonly used to loosen stuck metal parts, remove grease and grime, silence squeaky components, and displace water to remove moisture from electrical systems. Even after the lubricant has dried, it continues to protect surfaces from corrosion. The lubricant’s petroleum base permits use on most materials, excluding polycarbonate and clear polystyrene. The aerosol canister contains 12 oz. of lubricant and is sized for portability. It has a permanently attached, hinged straw, which offers two spraying options: The straw flips up to provide a precision stream of lubricant for controlled application and flips down for a fan-shaped spray from the nozzle for faster application over large areas.

Industrial lubricants can be found in most machinery performing one or more functions, including reducing friction and wear, preventing components from adhering to each other, distributing loads more evenly, dispersing heat away from moving parts, and preventing corrosion. Although many materials are used as lubricants, the most common are oil (also called fluid lubricants) and grease because of their versatility. Oil lubricants contain either a petroleum or synthetic base, the properties of which are modified by the addition of various additives. Grease lubricants, a mixture of oil lubricant and a thickening agent, have a thicker consistency than oil, enabling use wherever liquids cannot be retained and requiring less frequent changes.

WD-40 manufactures lubricants, and household and industrial cleaners. The company is headquartered in San Diego, CA.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great Product except for "Smart Straw" October 19, 2010

By R. T. Holland Jr.

Number of Items:1

I have used WD-40 for years.....as long as I can remember....and I am 68. However, I am so annoyed with this stupid "Smart Straw" I am considering looking for another similar product. The STRAW works fine....but when you fold down the straw, it doesn't spray...you just get a stream...wasteful if you're spraying tools. I have had ONE can that I bought with a Smart Straw that would spray correctly in the last year. If you can't live without WD-40, buy the gallon can and put it in a pump sprayer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Knock, Knock February 3, 2011

By Edwin C. Pauzer VINE™ VOICE

Who's there? I asked looking through the apartment door peephole. "It's me, Mike in apt. 108. Can you help me?" The neighbor was a quiet, shy kid who always hit me up to be a little league booster when he was younger. This time, Mike couldn't get the tumbler to move in his apartment door lock. I told him to wait while I went after my WD-40. I sprayed the hole, and like magic, Mike's key turned the tumbler around. His grin was a surprise at the product, and it was from ear to ear.

WD-40 has also worked on those fearsome rusted nuts on your wheel when you have to change tires, plus assorted other impossible tasks. It simply sprays the rust away. I read recently where it even removes the spray paint from cars without damaging the paint underneath. This is one of those products your home should not be without.

Here's what else it's good for:

* Protects silver from tarnishing
* Removes road tar and grime from cars
* Cleans and lubricates guitar strings
* Keeps flies off cows (Very important)
* Gives floors that "just waxed" sheen without making it slippery
* Loosens stubborn zippers or interlocking slide fasteners
* Restores and cleans chalkboards (Do teachers still have'em)?...
* Untangles jewelry chains
* Removes dirt and grime from the barbecue grill
* Keeps ceramic/terra cotta garden pots from oxidizing
* Removes tomato stains from clothing
* Keeps glass shower doors free of water spots
* Camouflage scratches in ceramic and marble floors
* Keeps scissors working smoothly
* Lubricates noisy door hinges on car doors or doors at home
* Removes black scuffmarks from kitchen floor
* Lubricates tracks in sticking home windows making them easier to open
* Rids kids' rocking chairs and swings of squeaky noises
* Gives a children's play gym slide a shine for a super fast slide
* Spraying an umbrella stem makes it easier to open
* Good for oven burns or any type of burn. It removes the burned feeling and heals with no scarring

I learned a long time ago that WD-40, WD for water displacement, and 40 because it was the 40th attempt that worked, was a Godsend.

You've heard the saying, "Say it, don't spray it," well,

spray this one. Read more ›

2.0 out of 5 stars It's like they need to include a training program for the stupid "Straw" :-) December 27, 2012

By Mark Cannon

Speaking as a long-time fan of WD-40 and as someone who I think isn't extremely stupid :-) ....I have to say that the "Smart Straw" is a disaster. I got the smart-straw version because when I went to buy a new can, that was the only kind on the shelf. Great product, awful new idea. If you can figure out how to consistently get it to do what you want it to do, and to KNOW where the stuff will be coming out from (and avoid having it squirt where you least expect it), you're a better man than I am! Frustrating, annoying....and messy. C'mon, WD-40, you can do better than this! They say it's so we won't have to worry about losing that little red straw -- but I never used that anyway. (Did you??)

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST Spray Lubricant - Highly Recommended! April 18, 2010

By C. F. Hill HALL OF FAMETOP 50 REVIEWER

Number of Items:1

We use a lot of WD-40 in our house and small business. This spray lubricant has so many uses, from oiling our kid's bike chains to fixing squeaky hinges, it is amazing how many things we find to use it on.

The new "Smart Straw" is a simple but very clever innovation that allows the WD-40 to be used in wide spray (for covering a large area or put on to a paper towel) or directed in a stream to a specific area (like into a mechanism), with just a flick of the nozzle. No more worrying about lost straws since it always attached!

This is a great product, made even better by the clever spray control "Smart Straw"!

Highly Recommended!

WD-40 is WD-40. Very useful but also very wasteful around my crew, you would think they had never used it before.
