WD40 TIP FOR THE WEEK

[queenbee]

Harsh winter weather often means power outages. Are you prepared? If you find yourself without a light to guide you, be sure WD-40 is around. Use it to:

Maintain outdoor generators. A liberal coat of WD-40 before a freeze or heavy rain will ensure protection against the elements and prevent freezing. WD-40 will also help keep generators rust-free. (Be sure generators are turned off before using WD-40)
Drive moisture from home wiring and electrical panel boxes (Be sure electrical panel boxes are turned off before using WD-40)
Remove candle soot from glass containers
Even if you don't typically experience power outages, it's always a good idea to:

Keep new batteries in flashlights
Keep plenty of candles around, in easy-to-reach places
Have a stash of firewood, blankets and other items to keep you warm
Keep plenty of canned food (and a can opener) handy

queenbee, you vorgot to mention the swiss army knife (sak), remember what mcgyver could all fix with that.

an bunch of candles can heat up an room that you feel the difference. an p51 us canopener should be allways on your keychain.

for the flashlight, if it isent an led, check the spare bulb. put an good strong flashlight with new cells in your car glovebox. and no the well known M*G lite isent up to standarts today anymore...any flashaholic can tell you that.

stay save!

Someone told me that spraying WD40 on your joints will help ease arthritis pain. I've been blessed that I've never had to worry about arthritis though.

Don't ever try that! I've heard it is dangerous when absorbed in the skin.
