WD-40: The Household Wonder Spray
This multi-purpose lubricant solves twelve common household problems from stuck zippers to squeaky hinges. Keep a can handy for quick fixes throughout your home.
LOOSEN STUBBORN ZIPPERS:
Spray small amount on stuck zipper teeth. Work zipper up and down gently. The lubricant loosens debris and makes zippers slide smoothly again.
RESTORE CHROME SHINE:
Spray WD-40 on chrome fixtures (faucets, towel bars). Wipe with soft cloth. Removes water spots and restores original shine instantly.
REMOVE GUM:
Spray directly on gum stuck to fabric, carpet, or hair. Wait 30 seconds. Gum loosens and peels away easily without residue.
REMOVE CRAYON FROM WALLS:
Spray on crayon marks. Wipe with damp cloth. The solvent dissolves wax without damaging paint. Works on most wall finishes.
STOP SQUEAKY DOOR HINGES:
Spray hinges while moving door back and forth. Penetrates and lubricates metal joints. Eliminates squeaks immediately.
CLEAN TAR AND SAP FROM CAR PAINT:
Spray on tar spots or tree sap. Let sit one minute. Wipe clean with microfiber cloth. Safe for automotive paint finishes.
FREE STUCK LOCKS:
Spray into keyhole or around lock mechanism. Insert key and turn several times. Displaces moisture and loosens corroded parts.
PREVENT SNOW FROM STICKING:
Spray on shovel blade before use. Snow slides off easily without sticking. Also works on snow blower chutes.
REVIVE OLD SCISSORS:
Spray pivot point and blades. Open and close several times. Removes rust and restores smooth cutting action.
SLIDE OFF TIGHT RINGS:
Spray small amount around stuck ring on finger. Ring slides off easily. Wash hands thoroughly after removal.
