Wonder Woman sent this to me today and it has made me feel a need to go buy a case of it. I use WD40 for squeaks, who knew it did all of this? It also makes me wonder why they don't market this stuff.
I read today that John Barry, who owned WD40, sent 10,000 cans of WD 40 a month during the VietNam war so our soldiers could keep their guns operational. I love that.
See what you think.....
WD-40. Who knew? I had a neighbor who had bought a new pickup. I got up very early one Sunday morning and saw that someone had spray painted red all around the sides of this beige truck (for some unknown reason). I went over, woke him up, and told him the bad news. He was very upset and was trying to figure out what to do probably nothing until Monday morning, since nothing was open. Another neighbor came out and told him to get his WD-40 and clean it off. It removed the unwanted paint beautifully and did not harm his paint job that was on the truck. I'm impressed!
WD-40 who knew? 'Water Displacement #40' The product began from a search for a rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect missile parts. WD-40 was created in 1953 by three technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to find a 'water displacement' compound.. They were successful with the fortieth formulation, thus WD-40. The Convair Company bought it in bulk to protect their atlas missile parts.

HAHAHAHA! That is a big fat lie. We are looking at one substitute right here. This is what I did tonight instead of homework. 
Remember the Spare Tire Bracelet? I got these flip flops at Jo-Ann's yesterday for $1.79 and they screamed for beads. They are not as bulky as the spare tire bracelet, even though I used the same technique. Let's call it the Spare Tire Treatment.
Cute, right? One tip: make sure the straps are not tight against your feet before you begin. If they are, the wires will hurt your feet.
