FAQs

How often should I apply WD-40 Specialist Dry PTFE Lubricant?

The frequency of application depends on the use and environment. For frequently used items or in harsh conditions, reapply every few weeks or as needed. For less used items, an application every few months may be sufficient.

Can I use this lubricant on rubber?

While the lubricant is generally safe, it's best to avoid direct application on rubber. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first to check for any adverse effects.

Is this product safe for use on electrical components?

This product is generally safe for use around electrical components, but it is not specifically designed for electrical applications. Always ensure power is off before applying. Avoid direct contact with sensitive electronics.

What is the shelf life of WD-40 Specialist Dry PTFE Lubricant?

The shelf life is typically several years if stored properly in a cool, dry place. Check the product for an expiry date.

Can I use this lubricant on food-grade equipment?

No, this product is not food-grade. Do not use it on equipment that comes into direct contact with food.

How do I clean up the lubricant?

If you need to clean up the lubricant, you can use a dry cloth or paper towel to wipe off any excess. For tougher residues, use a solvent like mineral spirits or a degreaser, but test it on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the Smart Straw and how does it work?

The Smart Straw is a nozzle attachment on the can that allows for both a precise stream and a wider spray. You can flip it up for a precise stream and down for a wider spray.

Troubleshooting

No spray comes out of the can.

Ensure the Smart Straw is correctly positioned (up for stream, down for spray). Shake the can well and check for any blockage in the nozzle. If the valve is clogged, try cleaning the nozzle with a pin.

Lubricant is dripping or running.

Apply the lubricant in a thinner, more even coat. Avoid over-application, as this can lead to dripping. Make sure the can is held upright during spraying.

Lubricant is not drying.

Ensure that the surface is clean before application. Apply a thin coat and allow sufficient time for drying (a few minutes). Check the product's expiry date.

Reduced effectiveness over time.

Reapply the lubricant as needed, especially on frequently used items or in harsh conditions. Consider cleaning the surface before reapplication to remove accumulated dirt and debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean and free from loose debris, dirt, or old lubricants. Wipe the area with a clean cloth if necessary.
Application: Shake the can well before use. Use the Smart Straw for precise application or the wider spray for larger areas.
Application Techniques: Apply the lubricant evenly to the surface, ensuring complete coverage. For hard-to-reach areas, use the straw for better precision.
Drying Time: Allow the lubricant to dry completely, typically a few minutes, to form a clear, protective film.
Compatibility: This lubricant is safe for use on most metals, glass, and plastics. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first if you are unsure about compatibility with a specific material.
Storage: Store the can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep the can upright to prevent leakage.
Maintenance: Reapply the lubricant as needed, especially in high-use or harsh environments. Regular applications will maintain optimal performance and protection.
