Default WD-40: the company's answer

As promised, here is the company's
response to my email:

++++++++++++++++

Good morning,

The definition for Kerosene is:

A thin oil distilled from petroleum or
shale oil, used as a fuel for
heating and cooking, in lamps, and as a
denaturant for alcohol. Also
called coal oil, lamp oil. The CAS# for
Kerosene is: 8008-20-6

The CAS# 64742-47-8 for our solvent in
WD-40 is classified as a
"distillates (petroleum) hydrotreated
light" material.

Kind of like saying the US Army infantry
soldiers are never armed with guns.

Caveat emptor.
