Another use for WD-40

My wife and I purchased an Argosy Minuet 6.0 wich had peeling decal striping around the entire periphery! The WD-40 removed all the glue residue without harmimg the painted surface! It worked better than anything else I tried, and made a big job a lot smaller!

John,

be sure to search the forums for the dangers of WD 40. Being a machinist (I read your profile!) you probably already know about material safety, so 'nuf said!.

Since you're in Windsor, you ought to come to the Mackinaw City rally next month. We're new to Airstream ownership and the forum, too, so you know that there will be other newbies there too!.

It is also what Briggs & Stratton recommends using to start their gas engines in their training courses.

My favorite use...killing wasps in the 30 amp electrical box at the campground...knocks them out cold.
