    I read that it was designed as a release agent for ICBMs, to make the icing release during launch. It's probably why the hack of spraying your dunny bowl works so well.... Great vid' 👍

    Graphite powder will clog a lock over time. It's just more dust. PTFE lube is probably better (locksmiths correct me if I'm wrong)

    Brave man! Alot of oppinions on the matter. On painted surfaces, blackout things such as engines, rubber bits and such, I use Vinyl shine, made for interiour in cars. Used it for years and does not affect anything. Works fine. And smells good!

      Totally agree. WD40 in the wrong hands can be evil. Multiple doses on a lock barrel, warmed up in the sun, leaves a sticky residue, making the lock inoperable. WD40 was designed as a release agent for icing on ICBMs during launch. That's why I only use it for the dunny bowl. Nothing sticks during launch.

    It's basically kerosene, and not the right tool for some of these applications. The side stand should be lubed with molybdenum grease, teflon cables should not be lubed, locks should be kept dry and lubed with graphite as you said, etc.
    It is a great decreaser for chains, wheels and engines, but kerosene is too and costs very little.

    Why would you use wd40 instead of penetration oil for the cables for isntance? I have seen many tests where WD40 doesn't last that long nor as good tbh .. Can't say if many of these tips are actually a 'better' choice above penetrant oil as WD40 usually has silicones inside of it its great for cleaning but for like lubing long term?

    Hi please don't use WD40 as a lubricant its actually a solvent. All you are doing is temporarily dissolving any residual lubricant which makes it feel great for a while. Using WD40 as a lube is a temporary fix that degrades the ability of the residual grease to perform is designed purpose.

    WD-40 on a lot of the things you use it for only works for a short while - 3in1 works better and for a longer time.
    WD-40 is designed to work quickly but also dissipate quickly (as in no longer doing any lube work).
    PS - If you want to go faster on the track, spray WD-40 on your brakes!
    It helps increase track speed!
    (guess why)

    Sure it has its uses, but cleaning your hands isn't one of them. The instructions do caution skin contact as it can cause dermatitis and (as I am all to aware) painful fissures at your fingertips due to prolonged contact.

    Hi Dan,
    I've been a subscriber for a long time and you were part of my inspiration to build my first cafe racer... but I wanted to share some feedback.
    I hope you know this comes from a good place as I really loved your earlier content but a lot of the newer stuff feels like filler, such as this video.
    I don't think there's anything genius about using WD40 for any of these applications and these types of video are 10 a penny on UA-cam. I really liked your older "everyman" approach to building and stuff like the fork clamp build a couple of months ago reminded me of your (quality) OG content. Seems recently that everything is made on fancy kit that some DIY'ers wont have (like the "3 ways to build this" type content too) or the videos are obviously pushing a product. I get you need an income from your content but I guess I just miss the honest OG stuff that made me sub in the first place.
    I hope the scales go back to tipping towards the older style content but whatever happens, I wanted you to know that some of your videos have helped me and I really appreciate you taking the time to put them together.

    • @CafeRacerGarage
      @CafeRacerGarage  9 місяців тому +1

      Thank you for the feedback mate, much appreciated, i didn’t take offence don’t worry 👍😊 Im committed to posting fortnightly and I do my absolute best to stick to that schedule, I have a few big videos still to come so the short ones like this are a necessity to keep to my schedule. Non the less these videos still add value and take a lot of work to put together. If 15+ hours of editing alone in this one. I do understand your point of view but unfortunately not all my videos can appeal to everyone all at the same time, but that being said I do try my best 💪 have a great day

    Get a NEW can of WD-40 (has to be new and a spray can) and shake it in all directions for at least a minute (doesn't have to be violent - just shaken)
    Then quickly pour it into a CLEAR spray bottle.
    Let it sit till tomorrow
    It has separated! Only me and the Manufacturer know this (it also says to do it on all containers - but no one does).
    WD-40 NEEDS to be shaken before use!
