Sounds Fishy to Me

Did you know that WD-40 will take spray paint off any vehicle without damaging the paint job?

WD-40 Water Displacement #40, better known as WD-40, was the result of a search for a rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect missile parts. It 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 formula, thus
WD-40. The Convair Company bought it in bulk to protect their atlas missile parts.

Ken East, one of the original founders, says there is nothing in WD-40 that would hurt you. In fact, the basic ingredient is FISH OIL!!

WD-40 will also clean a spotty shower door whether it's glass or plastic, or try it on your stove top. You'll be amazed!
