WD-40 Multi-Use Product 12oz Smart Straw - Damascus, Oregon:
The WD-40 Multi-Use Product 12oz Smart Straw (also known as WD-40 penetrant, multi-purpose lubricant, rust loosener, moisture displacer, penetrating oil, or tool protectant) is in-stock at GutterAll in Damascus, Oregon for same-day pickup. This 12oz (12 oz / 340 g) aerosol can features the Smart Straw permanently attached applicator that flips up for precision spray in tight spaces or stays down for wide-area coverage. WD-40 stands for "Water Displacement, 40th formula" - developed in 1953 to protect the Atlas missile from rust and corrosion. The formula penetrates rust to free seized fasteners, displaces moisture to protect electrical connections and tools, lubricates hinges and mechanisms, and removes grease and adhesive residue. Gutter installers use WD-40 daily to free rusted fascia screws before tear-off, loosen corroded hanger brackets, protect gutter machine rollers and seamers from Pacific Northwest moisture, and clean adhesive residue from new gutters. The 12oz size provides more product than standard 8oz cans while still fitting in a tool pouch or truck toolbox.

What is WD-40?
WD-40 stands for "Water Displacement, 40th formula" - the name comes from the 40th attempt by chemist Norm Larsen to create a formula that would displace water and prevent corrosion. Developed in 1953 by the Rocket Chemical Company for the aerospace industry, WD-40 was originally used to protect the outer skin of the Atlas missile from rust and corrosion. The formula proved so effective that employees began sneaking cans home for personal use. WD-40 Company was formed in 1969, and the product has since become the world's most recognized multi-use maintenance spray with over 2,000 documented applications across industries. The formula has five primary functions: it penetrates to loosen rust, lubricates moving parts, protects metal from corrosion, removes grease and grime, and displaces moisture from electrical systems and tools.
Smart Straw Technology - Two Spray Patterns:
The Smart Straw is a permanently attached precision applicator that eliminates the problem of lost spray straws. The straw flips up for pinpoint accuracy in tight spaces or stays down for wide-area coverage. This dual-spray capability is essential for gutter installers who need precision application behind existing gutters and broad coverage for tool protection.
| Spray Mode | How to Use | Best Application |
|---|---|---|
| Precision Stream | Flip straw UP and spray | Rusted screws, hinges, behind gutters, tight spaces |
| Wide Spray | Leave straw DOWN and spray | Tool protection, large metal surfaces, equipment |
Gutter Installation Applications:
WD-40 is an essential tool for gutter installers. The following applications demonstrate why professional gutter contractors keep multiple cans in every truck:
| Task | Problem | WD-40 Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Gutter Tear-Off | Rusted fascia screws strip or snap | Penetrates rust, allows clean removal |
| Hanger Removal | Corroded brackets seized to fascia | Breaks rust bonds, prevents fascia damage |
| Machine Maintenance | Rollers and seamers rust from moisture | Displaces water, prevents corrosion |
| Ladder Mechanisms | Extension locks stick or squeak | Lubricates and silences mechanisms |
| Seamer and Crimper | Pivot points bind from debris | Cleans and lubricates moving parts |
| Downspout Installation | Sections stick during assembly | Light lubrication eases fit |

Usage Guide - How to Use WD-40 Smart Straw:
- Shake Can Well: Shake the can for 10-15 seconds before each use to ensure proper mixing of the formula for maximum effectiveness.
- Select Spray Pattern: For precision application in tight spaces, flip the Smart Straw UP. For wide-area coverage on tools and surfaces, leave the straw DOWN.
- Hold Can Upright: For best results, hold the can upright at approximately 6-8 inches (6-8" / 15-20 cm) from the target surface.
- Apply WD-40: Spray directly onto the rusted fastener, squeaky hinge, or surface requiring treatment. For severely rusted parts, allow penetrant to soak for 5-10 minutes.
- Allow Penetration: For frozen bolts and seized parts, allow WD-40 to penetrate for several minutes. Reapply if necessary for heavily corroded components.
- Work the Part: After allowing penetration time, work the fastener or mechanism back and forth to help WD-40 reach deeper into the rust bond.
- Wipe Excess: Wipe away excess product with a clean rag. WD-40 leaves a thin protective film - no need to remove completely unless painting.
- Store Properly: Store can in a cool, dry location between 50-100 degrees Fahrenheit (50-100 F / 10-38 C). Keep away from heat sources and open flames.
Pro Tip: For gutter tear-off, spray rusted fascia screws the night before the job. Overnight penetration significantly reduces screw stripping and speeds tear-off. Apply WD-40 to gutter machine rollers at the end of each day to prevent rust buildup from Pacific Northwest moisture.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How does the Smart Straw work?
The Smart Straw is a permanently attached precision applicator. Flip the straw UP for pinpoint accuracy in tight spaces like behind gutters, into hinges, and around fasteners. Leave the straw DOWN for wide-area spray coverage on tools, equipment, and larger surfaces. Two spray patterns in one can - no separate straw to lose.
Q: Can WD-40 be used as a long-term lubricant?
WD-40 Multi-Use Product provides light, temporary lubrication suitable for hinges, latches, cables, and light-duty mechanisms. For heavy-load bearings, chains, or high-friction applications requiring long-term lubrication, WD-40 Company offers specialized products in the WD-40 Specialist line designed for specific lubrication needs.
Q: Is WD-40 safe on painted gutter surfaces?
WD-40 is safe on most painted surfaces and will not damage factory-painted aluminum or steel gutters. However, always test on an inconspicuous area first. WD-40 is excellent for removing adhesive residue from painted gutters without damaging the finish.
Q: What does WD-40 stand for?
WD-40 stands for "Water Displacement, 40th formula." The name comes from the 40th attempt by chemist Norm Larsen in 1953 to create a formula that would displace water and prevent corrosion for the aerospace industry. The formula proved so effective it became a commercial product.
