How much is that?
I meant how much is Inox?
@cchhiillyy: About $10 at Bunnings.
Also needs far fewer applications than WD40 since it actually sticks around longer term.
Also excellent to oil your tools/etc to prevent rust. Spray a little bit on a rag and wipe down metal surface.
@PCHammond: We use that cheap sht as a degreaser, not for lubrication.
These are for lube

https://www.bunnings.com.au/wd-40-specialist-300g-high-perfo…So this post is still good dealish?
Small cans raises lots of red flag for me though
@cchhiillyy: @cchhiillyy - oops, sorry was meant to post the link to bunnings https://www.bunnings.com.au/inox-300g-aerosol-lubricant-can_…
Agreed, Inox is a far better product, been using it for years. Doesn't dry and gum up, doesn't stink and as you stated, Australian made. Yes it is more expensive but worth the extra.
Yes, Inox doesn't seem to attack plastics too. Superior to WD40. For longer lasting applications, use Lanox, made by the same company that makes Inox. Lanox is based on sheep lanolin.
I use Inox for most general day to day applications.
For purposes where there is exposure to salt water, or for long term storage of something metal, I use lanox since it does better against corrosion.
All my guns and knives have a thin coating of Inox. I wouldn't trust WD40 for any of them.
I use Lanox on tools and machinery to keep the rust off. Works really well but you do end up smelling like you've been intimate with a sheep if you aim your squirts poorly.
Lanox is based on sheep lanolin.
Don't take modified LSD with it then, contraindications are heavy.
WD40 and CRC do the job of busting nuts just fine mister.
WD40 is the best stuff. The Inox is junk.
But Inox seems to be a lubricant, wd40 is not lubricating whatsoever..
Low Odour
Why would you want that?
Exactly, love the smell of WD40. A woman could drive a room full of engineers wild by putting a dab of it behind each ear.
I say we need more

An up-vote for WD-40 is an up-vote for anarchy!
I know a bit off topic but any suggestions on what to use on squeaking inside doors almost every door in the house does this but something that does not make a mess.

Inox MX3. Use the included extension tube, spray very lightly into the hinge joints and swing the door a few times. Wipe off any excess. Inox is clear so doesn't stain.
This. Every internal door hinge of mine has been sprayed with Inox, and it makes a huge difference.
I wish I knew about Inox when I was a teenager. It would have made sneaking back into the house so much easier late at night.
WD40 dry PTFE or any grease. Ask anyone at bunnings if you're not sure, they'll generally have some idea.
I have WD40 dry PTFE and only use it for external hinges. I find Inox does way better for internal hinges where I do not need to worry about dirt/dust.
Inox is also twice the price of wd40 if i get wd40 from aldi.
I asked first words was wd40 i have used wd40 at home as well at work and personally cant fault the stuff and does come in handy with lots of other stuff around home.
WD40 is the brand, the dry PTFE is a specific product in their lineup…
@ATangk: So the Aldi stuff above is different and not ptfe,I been looking into the inox and I believe it's clear which is ideal for Internal door hinges,but is almost twice the price people say wd40 is not a lubricant but it advertises as one and I have used it at work and does wonders. Also it does many things but does inox do same.
@bwatt72: Its not a lubricant. Using gear oil or something like that would be much much better than WD40, that stuff wont last long used as a lubricant.
You can use wd40.
Just spray it on, swing the door.
… Repeat every 2 months.
At end of year， remove door, clean hinges of the black 4mm thick gunk combination of old wd40 and dust (dump in kerosene), reapply door, reapply wd40.
Repeat 👍
Or use a decent oil, reapply every year or so as required.

Not sure if people don’t know but WD40 is not a lubricant.
Oil in Kerosene so there is some lube mixed in.
Just make sure don't lube the wrong thing.
Works for the wife's toys.
Jokes of course - we're not married yet.
Came looking for African witch doctor tools… left disappointed.
Nomatter how cheap it gets, don't use WD40
Use Inox. Far superior and Australian made too. WD40 is junk.
