WD-40

Go to any site that deals with auto mechanics and chances are you will find a debate over WD-40 – Is it a solvent or a lubricant?   Actually, it  is a little bit of both. 

Originally designed as a Water Displacement  product (40th formula) by Norm Larsen in 1953, WD-40 has never been patented; primarily so the actual formula could remain secret.

This miracle in a spray can has hundreds of uses far beyond what is listed on the packaging – everything from bug spray to stain remover.  Some even swear it helps their arthritis!

For a list of some of the uses, check this article from Readers Digest.
