Fact: WD40 works incredibly well as a surface protectant and cleaner, and quite well as a water-displacing "wire dryer." However, it excels in situations requiring short term low viscosity lubrication followed by rapid gumming up and accumulation of dirt. In situations where short term gain followed by long term and increasing difficulties requiring extensive cleaning and lubrication with actual and correct lubricants is desired, WD40 is the product for this application. If you like to fix things, use WD40...you'll get to fix them more often.
I know it's a fact because I wrote it, and now it's on the interwebs.
