      $4.4 here at Ashfield but i cannot go out just for this lubricant.

        You are making a great sacrifice for the greater good.

    Hmm Old Spice or this. Hard decision.

      i prefer a splash of blue kero myself….

    • Perhaps a whiskey may be the better choice?

      With smart straw & penetrating power, this one for sure

    Smart Straw?

    • +1

      good for drinking

    • +16

      The smart straw allows you to drip WD40 down the can onto your hand if you accidentally bump it slightly out of place so it doesn't make a 100% seal at the nozzle. Genius.

    • +8

      Jokes aside, I like the smart straw.

      It folds away so you don't have to keep it sticking out of the can. I used to remove the straw from the regular version and lose it pretty often.

    • +12

      They are really stretching the definition of "smart".

      • It's actually pretty cool. When you fold it down, it sprays wide. With the straw it sprays in a narrow pattern.

    • Funny marketing. I bet they are half taking the piss at WD40 HQ.

    • I bought one, having trouble getting it to integrate into home assistant at the moment. Definitely isn't compatible with Conbee :)

      • Give the red button a long press. This helps to establish a connection

    • I need a QR code for it

  • Will keep my under arm from being clunky?

    Is the straw wifi controllable?

    Are these better than those Ansell lubricants? Asking for a friend

    I prefer to use a more eco-friendly stainless steel straw to drink my solvents.

  • Is the straw Alexa/google home compatible?

    It's lockdown so you know what that means, it's time to get some wd40 from bunnings

      The comment I was looking for. Nothing against OP but it's getting close to iresponsible posting these deals :D

      • +4

        Bunnings is a nation wide business and most of the nation isn't in Lockdown

      • I'm not in lockdown. There's nothing irresponsible about me going out to buy some WD40.

        • +1

          Depends. What do you plan on doing with it? I can think of so many irresponsible uses.

          Check your privilege!

      I hope that those in lock down would do the right thing.

      • But we all know that they won't. Those bearings and hinges need to be sprayed today

  • I'm going with the spray bottle version once my current can runs out. Wasted heaps previously because the old can lost all the pressure over time.

    • I've always had this issue too. Is there a special spray bottle to buy. I've heard normal ones can't be used?

      • +1

        I have bought WD-40 non-aerosol trigger spray in 330ml tin can at Bunnings. I don't know, if Bunnings still stock it now. This link is for reference https://wd40.com.au/multi-use-product/trigger/

        • thanks, the problem is i have half full cans that have lost pressure. it appears the one you have is trigger based, but not fillable?

    • +6

      Okay, what you need is an old tyre valve stem.

      Trim it down, and use bike pump or plug in.

  • Click & Collect available at my local, but I’m not gonna bother ordering. I’ve got enough in the garage to last me until the end of lockdown.

      Victoria and “end of lockdown” do go well with each other

    Not often you see these on offer. Like an iPhone 13 are we expecting a 2021 WD-40?

  • +12

    Technically not a lubricant. Its a "Water Displacement". After spraying and cleaning you should add a real lubricant, or in a few months, you'll need to repeat.

    • came here looking for this comment

    • +2

      While it was marketed as water displacement, it is also a lubricant:

      • It says so on the can
      • MSDS says "<25% petroleum base oils"
      • Gas chromatography has confirmed that it contains a significant amount of mineral oil.

      See Wikipedia and links to tests by Wired magazine: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/WD-40

    • It is not, but closely related. Use WD40 to stop the bed screeching!

  • Can I spray this on my joints?

    • +14

      Absolutely. And you can use them on your tight nuts and rusty tool too.

    • +2

      It will light up quicker, and add a bit of flavour

    • PCP is better than WD40 for joints.

  • +3

    FYI: Woolies has the Low Odour Wd-40 (255g can) on "online only" special for half price at $3.25 (https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/58182/wd-4…).
    Could be an alternative for those in lockdown and Bunnings is outside the allowed radius!

    • Good spot, original one smells very strong to me.

      Pair it with some lynx africa and u are ready for trouble ;)

      • +4

        Tell me you're an apprentice tradie without telling me you're an apprentice tradie

        "I smell like WD-40 and Lynx Africa"

    • you travel outside radius to get to a store that has the product you require.

      otherwise we would be buying everything from 7-11 and not supermarkets

      • you need to look up the lockdown rules…

    Just in time for my anniversary

    If you want decent "lube in a can" Inox is tons better imho. https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/inox-inox-mx3-lubricant-…

    • It's inox actually a lubricant or also a solvent?

      • Im not an expert on its ingredients. I just know it works good on slidey and spinny shit. Don't think it has solvent.

      • Its a lubricant. Although for lubrication I'd recommend MX4 instead of MX3 overall. Brilliant stuff. Both great products though.

  • Now I’m tempted to go to bunnings just to see how many people are picking up this essential goods during lockdown!

      I'm always tempted to go to Bunnings just so I can tell my wife I'm going out to get a screw

        She replies: Can I come along and join you ?

    On the weekend my dad fixed my washing machine by spraying WD-40 in the power outlet and where the main power cord connects inside the appliance.

    I was literally setting up alerts on ozb for a new washing machine because I thought it was cactus, before dad saved me $500.

    I'm convinced WD-40 is black magic.

    • …what …? wow. how did he diagnose that?

      • +1

        WD40 displaced the moisture in the electrical connectors and the electrical connection is restored.

        Simples.

        I use WD40 to spray all exposed metals fittings to prevent them from corrosion.
        Also for removing grease/automotive gunk from surfaces.

        For electrical parts, I use CRC 2.26 ELECTRICAL MULTI-PURPOSE 450G

    • I have been spraying WD-40 in my trailer socket and plug. Never had a problem since I started doing that

    Out of interest, can you take off the Smart Straw Spray Head and use it on another can?

    • +3

      Yes, you can take the straw off or even take the entire head off and use it on another can.

      • cool!…wonder what paint would look like through one of these heads? obviously for artistic application not touch ups etc

      • Thanks mate

  • With this on sale, the store will be even more jammed pack with people for sure. Bunnings is fast becoming the goto store where the masses flock to during the lockdown period. The mecca of shopping.

    So Big W, K-Mart, etc, reopen your stores and stop this (nonsense) Click-n-Collect only strategy. Really need to try out some new undies. Sheesh.

    There are very few things in life better than removing a squeak from a hinge.

  • Door squeaking.
    Googling and peeps say to use WD40 on door hinges.
    Applied WD40 to hinges and now door won't stay half-open
    Googling and peeps say don't use WD40 on door hinges.

    Now I have to pull my hair out each day trying to wiggle around and make my doors stay half-open

  • Prefer the low odour version (has no odour to me though), around $6 a can.

  • Is this one silicone based?

  • This isn't good for squeaks imo, problem will come back after a few months. Lithium grease is much better.

    Use hair spray for squeaks for a short term fix

  • I need this. I can never put the straw back in the hole for some reason

  • Can you use that in your computer?

    • I am not an electrician or technician of any kind, but I have a strong doubt that you'd want something like WD-40 in computer. Not sure what you'd use WD-40 for to begin with tbh?

      WD-40 probably would gunk up with dust eventually. Not sure how WD-40 reacts with different types of plastic as well.

      The gist I've gotten is that you are better off using something that's specially made for the purpose. Cleaning circuit boards for example would be best done with isopropyl alcohol (they sell some at Jaycars, but I found them to be on the expensive side). WD-40 I don't think are that great as a lubricant to begin with?
