Brilliant Ways To Use WD 40

You are all familiar with WD 40 for loosening bolts and stopping squeaky doors, but did you know there are many other useful ways to use WD 40 inside and outside your home? I myself have used it to remove crayons off the walls, but here are some more uses you may not even imagined.

Keep Spiders Away

Do you have a fear of spiders? Then just spray some WD-40 on places where spiders and other insects can get in, such as windowsills and door frames. It will keep the spiders and other bugs out.

Have you ever been out and about and stepped on some animal poop? Oh, it’s so messy and hard to clean it from the bottom of your shoes/boots! Yuck! All you have to do is spray some WD-40 on the sole of your shoe and use an old toothbrush to clean the poop out of the crevices. Rinse with cold water and your shoes will be as good as new. Terrific!

Keeping The Squirrels Out Of Your Bird Feeders

It seems to always happen. You fill your birdfeeder, and ready for your winged friends, you look outside, and the  squirrels get into it and eat all the seeds. The birds never seem to have a chance. What can you do??? Next time you fill up the feeder, just spray a good coat of WD-40 on top of the feeder and those rodents will slip right off.

Remove Super Glue From Fingers

I have done this so many times. I will be working on a project, and gently squeeze the tube of super glue, and somehow I get some of it onto my fingers. Now they are stuck together. What to do? Spray some WD 40 on the area, and rub your hands together and it will come off!

Help! My Ring Won’t Come Off My Finger!

Sometimes our fingers get swollen and then it is so hard to get your ring off your finger. So if your ring is too tight, just spray a little WD 40 and it will slide right off!

Help, My Zipper Is Stuck!

Keeps Your Car Locks from Freezing

If an ice storm is in your forecast, spray some WD-40 in the locks of your car. It will prevent water from seeping in and freezing the locks.

Stuck LEGOs

Okay, so some of the legos are stuck so tightly together, you can’t get them free. Just spray a little bit of WD 40 on the pieces and they will come apart easily.

Removes Crayon and Marker from Walls

I have used this many times on my walls to remove my boys ‘art’ from the walls. Just spray on some WD-40 on the wall and then wipe off the crayon or marker with a clean rag. If you have wallpaper, do a quick test first.

Remove Grease

Guys, don’t get grease all over the bathroom sink, spray some WD-40 on your hands as soon as you’re done working on your car. Rub them together and then wipe with a paper towel and follow with some soap and water.

Removes Paint From Leather

So your painting and some paint gets on your leather couch! Oh No! All you have to do is spray the spot with the WD 40 and wipe with a clean cloth. The paint will be gone!
