    I did it to try to fix my squeaky leafs, it worked for a few days and started squeaking again I also noticed alot of dirt and grit the wd40 had built up between them. I cleaned them up and sprayed some white grease in them, no squeak and its been about 6 months.

    Thats because it cleaned off what ever regular grease you had left on your leafs, yeah it would be a temp fix until it works off every bit of old grease and cleans them squeaky clean and then the real noise happens!

    I used WD on my windshield wipers when it hasent rained for a while to prevent them from cracking, also on the rubber on the door jams of my car to keep them pliable, works like a charm!

    WD40 works great if you spray it on ATV / Dirt Bike plastics before a muddy ride, it will repel the mud and make cleanup much easier. I have also used to to spray my inner fender wells to keep mud from sticking and making clean up much easier.

    I use it to remove crayon stains from car seats. It is named specifically by crayola on their website. Really works, I swear.

    I use it to keep our fishing gear free of rust, to polish and clean off my knives, and of course to spray random insects who dare venture into my garage. :D

    Christ how hard is it to pull out the hose and spray down the bike? Why would anyone waste wd40 so they didn't have mud on their bike? Then when the bike is out and washed I have an excuse to ride it some more..

    Used it to get my vehicle door lock working again, once the road salt gets in the key lock it jams it up. WD40 works well to get it working again.
