I used to use WD40 ALL the time on my bike when I was a kid. only thing my parents had and we were DEFINITELY not made of money. never had a problem with my bike and I would run the pi$$ outta it all day long. not to say I'll use that as a lube now days, I rarely use it. even for hinges, I use a type of oil cause wd40 doesnt last. but I heard wd40 on bait works good for fishing! and I would get that stuff on me and it would stay on for awhile and I never had problems......not to say that you're lying bout the headaches, just my experience.
by the way, can I get this triflow, etc from say walmart? I have an old bottle I still use now, but could use some more.
