Hmmm, never knew that, always heard it as water based I will need to update my site on that.

Either way, WD-40 fits in my toolbox, the air compressor doesn't and in 17 years it has never done me wrong. I've never recommended it as a long term lubricant to replace grease or Tri-Flow.

Air compressor? Definitely a better way - if available.

Hairspray? As long as it is the right brand, some really gum things up and completely ruin grips.
