Canada will ban aerosol WD-40 in 2024 (www.westernstandard.news)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Almost every Canadian has a spray can of WD-40 in the garage, but that's about to change.

You use it to fix just about anything that needs a little lubrication, squeaky hinges, rusty bolts and even your bike chain.

Update: Thanks to @Sbhinclusion for sharing this press release from WD-40, which states that they will become compliant with th new regulation.

As if there aren't other ways to apply lubricants.

And WD40 isn’t so much a lubricant as much as a cleaner.

Learned this the hard way, fucked up my Bones Reds longboard wheel bearings.

It's main use as a lubricant is a mid level penetrative fluid.

What's wrong with a kiss, boy? Hmm? Why not start her off with a nice kiss? You don't have to go leaping straight for the aerosol like a bull at a gate. Give her a kiss, boy.
