A 55-year-old product with thousands of uses is getting a major facelift to make it an even more useful and time-saving tool for consumers and trade professionals.
For years, consumers and trade professionals have depended on WD-40® for everything from quieting squeaky hinges to protecting tools from corrosion, but many have complained about losing the little red straw that comes attached to the sides of cans with a piece of tape and spending unwanted time searching for it.
WD-40 Company is getting rid of the tape and detachable straw, and is giving its most popular-size cans something to hold onto – a permanently attached straw that sprays two ways. WD-40 Smart Straw® cans contain same formula used and trusted by millions of people around the world, but also feature the permanently attached straw, which can be flipped down for a wide spray or flipped up to apply a pinpoint stream into hard-to-reach places.
The list of ways to use WD-40 also continues to improve. In fact, WD-40 Company has expanded its official list of more than 2,000 uses for the product on its new Web site, wd40.com. Many loyal fans regularly share their favorite uses on-line through the official WD-40 Fan Club, now more than 115,000 members strong.
