The WD-40 universal aerosol was developed in 1953. Today, the Vedashka has its own Facebook page and dozens of fan sites.
Everyone knows that the WD-40 is indispensable for jammed locks, naughty nuts and hinges. But if you apply a creative approach, the tool can be used not only for its intended purpose. Today we offer Top 10 Ways to Use the WD-40.
10. Prevention of hornet's nests
Wasps often make nests under the eaves of the roofs of private houses. To prevent this from happening, you need to spray the WD-40 in advance into secluded corners under the eaves - wasps will never again make a nest here.
9. Removing traces of glue
Frozen adhesive traces are very difficult to remove. But WD-40 will quickly get rid of annoying glue stains on clothes, furniture, hands. Moreover, the spray copes with most modern "superglue".
8. License plate recovery
If the license plate has lost its original appearance, the spray must be applied for a couple of minutes, and then remove the dirt with a dry cloth. In addition, after such processing, the room will be protected from rust for a long time.
7. Protection of windows against freezing
If you put WD-40 on the outside of the window, the glass will always remain clean and will not be covered with frost.
6. Water-repellent shoe impregnation
To begin with, you should know that not every coating will withstand the application of WD-40 without consequences. But if the test in the inconspicuous area was successful, with the help of an aerosol you can create a reliable barrier against rain and slush.
5. Cleaning the toilet
It is enough to apply WD-40 to the surface, as well as under the rim of the toilet bowl for a couple of minutes, walk with a brush, then rinse. There will not even be a trace of limescale.
4. Removing chewing gum stuck in hair
This situation is a real nightmare that most often ends with scissors. If you apply WD-40 to the chewing gum, then some time later it can be combed out using a comb. During spraying, it is important to keep your eyes and mouth closed and not inhale.
3. The destruction of cockroaches and other insects
By spraying the WD-40 on window sills, ventilation grills, frames, doorways, you can scare away unwanted pets. True, you should be careful if there are small children in the house.
2. Removing the tight ring
A ring stuck on a finger is not easy to remove. Water and soap experiments often end up with the ring falling into the drain. But a couple of drops of WD-40 can easily solve an unpleasant problem.
1. Separation of jammed glasses
If you try to forcefully separate a couple of glasses, one of which is tightly seated in the other, the glass may burst. But if you splash the WD-40 on the joint and wait a couple of minutes, the glasses can be easily divided without damaging them.
