Yes Charlie. And that includes my boat loving/boater personality *and*
my personality that does not tolerate non boat owning folks (I was easy
on you Charlie) like you who come to this NG only to flame and stir the
pot.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!!!!!

Odd, both my can of WD-40 and Blakemore's Reel Magic both say "contains
petroleum distillates", and they smell exactly the same.

Which is to say, kerosene in a spray can. Ten cents for the kerosene,
$2.90 for the packaging.

Nope.

Some nice photos of the Island at http://www.putinbayphotos.com/

In case you cannot tell, we are pretty excited about this vacation,
especially considering the stuff we went through during my stay at home
vacation the week of July 4th. ;-)

Sounds like a marvelous plan. I hope all does go well this time around.

Liquid Rollers...............It turns out to be a can of silicone with
some pretty nasty propellants and solvents.

Most so-called "silicone" sprays are just a few drops of actual silicone in
a bulk of mineral spirits.

No more true than your statement that WD-40 is Kerosene. See he
http://www.wd40.com/Brands/wd40_faqs.html

Which in part states:

What does WD-40 contain?
While the ingredients in WD-40 are secret, we can tell you what WD-40
does NOT contain. WD-40 does not contain silicone, kerosene, water,
wax, graphite, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), or any known cancer-causing
agents.

Quite true.

WD-40 and kerosene are both light petroleum distillates. Now WD-40 is
has less impurities and certain additives (like perfume), but the base
stock is the same. It is not literally kersosene for certain stricter
senses of the word, so WD-40 as a marketing statement can deny the
practical equivalence.

It's kind of like saying lighter fluid is not simple petroleum naphtha.
They are the same thing, or not, depending on whether you mean in
physical terms or marketing presentation. Or mineral spirits vs paint
thinner. Not quite identical twins, but close brothers in the petroleum
chemistry.

If you want to prove how much silicone is in your "silicone" spray, just
try evaporating the petroleum carrier out of a sample. You'll get
nothing but a thin silicone oil film left after the petroleum
evaporates.

Are you also gullible enough to assume Liquid Wrench is something
besides a nickel's worth of kerosene in a $3 can?

Cite? Seeing how the formulation is a secret....I'd like to see
evidence that you have.

That's all it takes.

Where did Liquid Wrench get into the conversation??? But, because you
asked, LW is a PETROLEUM MID-DISTILLATE, ALIPHATIC PETROLEUM NAPHTHA

It is elementary to anyone with knowledge of petroleum chemistry.

Which is another way to say, "kerosene."

Nope, wrong again, so I guess that you don't have that elementary
knowledge of petroleum chemistry, eh? Now, try again. Post any
information you have that concludes that WD-40 contains ro is made from
kerosene.
