WD-40 is not a lubricant, it can do it short term, but makes things worse long term.
WD-40 literally stands for Water Displacement - Formula 40.
Its to keep mechanical components hydrophobic so they don’t rust or otherwise degrade due to the presence of water.
For locks and keyways, you want powdered graphite as a lubricant. I keep a small tube (puffer style) in my pick kit if needed.
No no, I get it.
I do my best not to bother with form.
I just make shit work.
If you wanna pretty up my scripts for some sort of distribution, go for it.
But I’m done with it after that. That’s the companies problem now.
