I realize this doesn't relate to the original post, but I just have to clear up some blatant errors.

What's your hang up with wood? Seriously... Maybe it can be used for wood, but that's not its only use. WD =
water displacement. Wood dimensional? Wood displacement? Neither make any sense. And it does contain a very light lubricant, but is obviously not a replacement for grease or oil.
"WD-40 stands for "Water Displacement – 40th Attempt". Larsen was attempting to concoct a formula to prevent corrosion in nuclear missiles, by displacing the standing water that causes it. He claims he arrived at a successful formula on his 40th attempt. WD-40 is primarily composed of various hydrocarbons.
WD-40 was first used by Convair to protect the outer skin of the Atlas missile from rust and corrosion. The product first became commercially available on store shelves in San Diego in 1958."
