      and weird people still insist it’s a better lubricant than oil or grease, which are actually lubricants.

      and then they tell you all you have to do is apply it everyday…

      If you want to be pedantic, WD-40 is a brand that also sells lubricant. And they advertise their general use WD-40 as several things including a lubricant. It’s not a good long term lubricant compared to oil or grease, but it is a lubricant.

      It’s also a solvent that’ll break down lubricant. Use it to get the old gunk out, but you gotta add new grease or oil after.
