Creative uses for WD-40 that we never thought possible<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Some say there aren’t many things we need in life, but WD-40 is probably one of those things that we should definitely have around. It’s a wizard with as many magic tricks as your imagination can muster up.
\nSince it first came out, the multi-use product has become a staple in many people’s arsenal of home maintenance products. But it helps with so much more than just the common, well-known ways. Here are some surprising things you may not have realized you could use WD-40 for.<\/p>\n

Polishing your silver<\/h2>\n

It’s always great to own a nice collection of silverware cutlery, or a unique silver bowl that can often be a conversation piece when you have visitors. But we all know this common problem – silver might start to look a bit tarnished over time.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Polishing your silver<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

And you want to restore it to its former glory days of looking lustrous, but it’s not always easy to make it look new and shiny again once it happens. Well, fear not, this is yet another task that WD-40 can apparently help with. Just spray it down the piece of silver you want to clean, wipe it off, and watch that silver become sparkly once more!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Separating stuck glasses<\/h2>\n

It can be pretty annoying when you reach to get a drinking glass and instead of easily getting one, you find that some of your glasses have become locked together, with one of the glasses completely stuck inside the other.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Separating stuck glasses<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Apparently, there’s an easy fix for that. You guessed it – just spray some WD-40 on the glasses, wait a few moments for it to get in there between the glasses, and then you’ll be able to easily (but gently) pull the two glasses apart. Of course, you’ll need to thoroughly wash them before you use them, as it’s obviously not recommended to put anything that touched WD-40 in your mouth.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Unsticking zippers<\/h2>\n

It can be extremely frustrating when the zipper on your favorite sweatshirt, or a backpack that you love, gets completely stuck in place. You try to move it around, but it won’t budge anywhere.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Unsticking zippers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

So what do you do next? Well, you can try spraying some WD-40 on the zipper and gently work it back and forth. It should slide right back into its place and allow you to open and close the zipper once more.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Cleaning your shoes<\/h2>\n

Everyone hates it when their favorite pair of sneakers get dirty, with stubborn rock salt stains or just plain mud. It can really get in there sometimes, and it’s hard to clean.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Cleaning your shoes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

One solution for that is spraying some WD-40 on the sneakers and wiping them down. You may be surprised how quickly that would work. And if you wish to make your shoes waterproof, just spray the whole thing with WD-40 and you’ll be good to go.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Getting rid of tar stains<\/h2>\n

Another pestering issue with cars is when you get tar all over it. Tar is a pretty persistent kind of stain, so it can be more annoying than cleaning a dirty oven.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Getting rid of tar stains<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

But instead of slaving away in an effort to get rid of all the tar and wiping your car clean – you can spray the surface of your car with WD-40, and watch even the most stubborn of stains melt away, just like that.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Defrosting ice during winter<\/h2>\n

It doesn’t matter if you live in a place where the weather is wintery all year long, or if you’re trying to get things ready for the cold season, WD-40 might be useful to you.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Defrosting ice during winter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

All you have to do is spray your car windows with WD-40, wipe off the excess, and it will actually keep the ice from getting stuck on your car windows and save you some precious time every morning during the winter.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Preventing scissors from sticking<\/h2>\n

If you tend to use scissors a lot around the kitchen, or while making beautiful DYI craft work for your home, then you probably know how annoyingly sticky scissors can get after a they’ve been used a couple of times.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Preventing scissors from sticking<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It can be difficult and even dangerous to use scissors that aren’t working smoothly, but apparently, if you polish them from time to time with WD-40, you won’t have to deal with anything getting sticky – problem solved.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Cleaning toilets<\/h2>\n

Cleaning your toilet can be a pesky job, and not a very pleasant one either. Sometimes you can get some ugly gunk built up inside the toilet bowl, but what most people don’t know is that you don’t need a specialized product to get rid of it.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Cleaning toilets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

All you have to do is spray some WD-40 the way you would any other product, and clean the bowl with a nylon toilet brush. Not only will it get it cleaned, but it’ll also keep it clean for longer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Protecting bird feeders<\/h2>\n

Having a bird feeder in the yard can be really nice. It keep those beautiful birds in your view, while also giving them a little treat.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Protecting bird feeders<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

However, squirrels can get in the way when they try to sneak in and steal the bird seeds. Not cool, right? But there’s a way to keep the little rascals away – if you spray the center pole with WD-40, the squirrels should just slide off. Pretty clever, isn’t it?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Taking off rings<\/h2>\n

There’s few things in this world that are quite as stressful as having your ring stuck on your finger.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Taking off rings<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It can happen in warm weather, or is you’re a pregnant woman, your fingers might swell up a little, and usually our reaction is panicking. Well, there’s no need for that. You can just cover your ring finger with a little bit of WD-40, and the ring should slide right off. It’s practically a magic trick!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Unsticking gum<\/h2>\n

Many people enjoy chewing gum. There are so many different flavors, and it’s a delicious way to keep your mouth occupied when you’re hungry and don’t have any food available.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Unsticking gum<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

However, it can be really annoying when someone just leaves their gum on the floor, and it ends up getting stuck to your shoe in a way that’s just impossible to get out! But don’t fret about it – all you need (you guessed it!) is WD-40. It will come right off.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Removing lipstick<\/h2>\n

Wearing lipstick can be fun. You can switch colors every day according to your mood, and even get some compliments on your looks. But when it transfers onto your clothes, it’s not very fun to clean up.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Removing lipstick<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Some lipsticks are harder to remove than others, too. But if you use WD-40 as a pre-wash stain remover, it will definitely help. If you find lipstick on your spouse’s clothing, though, that’s a whole other problem that WD-40 may not be able to assist with.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Getting rid of crayon marks<\/h2>\n

Probably anyone who has kids, or has had kids in their house, knows this problem.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Getting rid of crayon marks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As much as we’d love to encourage their creativity, we would prefer it if they didn’t use it to scribble with crayons all over the walls of our house. It can be a very difficult task to wipe everything off, and it doesn’t always work. But if you try spraying the walls with some WD-40, it should come right off.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Removing tea and coffee stains<\/h2>\n

It’s never nice when you have a few people over, and someone accidentally spills coffee or tea all over your table. These marks are incredibly hard to remove, and may never actually get out.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Removing tea and coffee stains<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

But a little bit of WD-40 can be very helpful in this case. Apparently, using a squirt of it while cleaning the table can work magic on the stains, and make them disappear in no time. Seriously, is this stuff amazing or what?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Opening Rusty Locks<\/h2>\n

Sometimes keyholes and keys can get rusty, and it can get really frustrating when they don’t work properly, and you have to spend an eternity to try and open the door in question.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Opening Rusty Locks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

You even risk breaking the key inside the lock, which can be a real headache. But don’t worry, you can simply apply some WD-40 onto the key, and you should be able to slide it easily into the keyhole and turn. You’re welcome!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Removing stickers and price tags<\/h2>\n

Sometimes it’s fun to put a sticker on your car, especially if it’s a funny bumper sticker that people driving behind us can get a kick out of.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Removing stickers and price tags<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

But have you ever tried peeling off a window sticker or a bumper sticker of your car? It can be a very exasperating task to do it – and we mean very. This is yet another problem that WD-40 can help with. You just need to coat the sticker with a layer of it, and it should peel right off.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Extending the Life of Shower Heads<\/h2>\n

Another use you may not have realized WD-40 has is helping to prolong your shower head’s life. Having a good shower head is vital to taking a shower.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Extending the Life of Shower Heads<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It can make all the difference between a regular, run-of-the-mill shower and a pampering spa-like break in your tedious daily routine. So we recommend applying some WD-40 on your shower head, as it can help you extend its life span even by years – which would also save you some money.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Filtering Dust in Air Conditioning<\/h2>\n

It’s recommended that you spray a light coat of WD-40 on the filter of your air conditioner before installing it, as it will actually make your filter much more effective.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Filtering Dust in Air Conditioning<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It helps keeping the air in your home cleaner and help avoid allergies, by filtering out even more dust than usual. Try spraying on WD-40, and check the filters after a while – you may be surprised with the amount of dust that’s been filtered out.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Have you ever found yourself standing frustrated in front of your shower while cleaning it, just wondering how so many water stains managed to build up on the glass? WD-40 to the rescue!<\/p>\n

\"\"

<\/p>\n

Getting rid of Mildew From Refrigerator Gasket<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Exterminating and repelling roaches and insects<\/h2>\n

Why let cockroaches, spiders, and insects take over your home, when you can easily get rid of them with WD-40? Whenever you see a roach, just spray it directly with WD-40 and you no longer have a problem.<\/p>\n

It’s bad enough when a chewing gum sticks to the bottom of your show, but when it sticks to your kid’s hair? Ugh.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Removing gum from hair<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Usually what we would do is cut the piece of hair with gum in it, but don’t go reaching for the scissors just yet. If you spray a little WD-40 directly on the gum, it will come right off.

Removes sports tape from ankles<\/h2>\n

When sports tape was introduced to the world, it allowed people to continue to exercise even if they felt as though their muscles were a little tight. The only downside to this medical tape is the fact that it is applied directly to your skin, which means it\u2019s not fun to take off.<\/p>\n
