I don't think I said anything that disagrees with that, Chuck. Sewing
machine oil is a poor choice if you use it for the wrong applications,
too.


Agreed. I was addressing the perception
that WD-40 is a wonder product good for
just about anything. Some folks even rub
in on their hands presumably to
alleviate arthritis. Not recommended.

WD-40 has plenty of applications where
it is a better choice than
sewing machine oil or electric motor oil. In fact, the WD40 company
realizes this, and also markets sewing machine oil and electric motor
oil under it's 3-IN-ONE brand.


Not sure I understand the second
sentence, but the 3-in-one Household Oil
found everywhere is NOT very good when
used as a sewing machine oil or an
electric motor oil.

There is a 3-in-one Electric Motor Oil
that is fine.

AFIK, there is no sewing machine oil
marketed under the 3-in-one brand.
