It is a bit overwhelming with so many contrasting opinions about what you can and can’t spray with these compounds.
So I have made a clip explaining how these chemicals are different from one another, and also explain how they are made to do different things.
To really simplify the whole clip, WD-40 is a Cleaner, and Silicone Spray is a protector from future damage. They can be used in combination with each other, and they are both great tools to have on standby in your shed.
00:49 Part 1 - WD-40
03:35 Silicone Spray
07:12 Special Sprays
I really hope this answers your question about Solvents and Lubricants. But if I haven’t please leave me a comment and Ill get back to you.

This is the MOST COMPREHENSIVE explanation of WD-40 and silicone based products that I have heard so far. Concise and to the point without all the BS. THANK YOU!

@suburbangardenshed 3 месяца назад

Thanks so much. I know I personally get annoyed with un necessary rambling so I did put in a bit of effort to editing it out. So yer I'm glad it's appreciated :)

1. Cleaning --> WD40 (you can most likely use breaks cleaner to degrease stuff insead) WD40 was for a long time basically the cheapest stuff that´s it. 2. Lubricating --> fine machinery oil 3. Sealing --> silicone spray (rubber gasket around car doors for instance, basically winter proofing the vehicle so the seals are clean and don´t stick)

That's an even better way to describe it,cheers :)

@@suburbangardenshed Thank you, I only came up with it after watching your video, you gave me the idea, well done in the video mate, cheers.

@JeffCogswell 4 месяца назад

Thank you!! I knew WD stood for water displacement and that it’s not actually a lubricant, but I didn’t know much beyond that. This helps! Thanks!!

@suburbangardenshed 4 месяца назад

No worries :) It was really fun researching into this and the rabbit hole just became deeper and deeper.

@sierraecho884 3 месяца назад

The 40 stands for the 40th iteration of this stuff. It´s the cheapest shittiest spray ever.

Thank you! 🙏 Came across your video while researching on whether to use a silicone spray on my knives. ⚔️ Looks like it is a great idea! 💪

@suburbangardenshed 5 месяцев назад

I'm glad you like it. Did you get up getting a food grade silicone?

@eraytekgoz9778 5 месяцев назад

thank you so much for the explanation, I was little confused where to use wd40 and silicone spray. looks like I will use break cleaner and silicon spray combo

@suburbangardenshed 5 месяцев назад

Glad you liked it. I'll be honest in saying I haven't really researched break pads yet but I'm thinking there maybe specialist sprays for that to.

@eraytekgoz9778 5 месяцев назад

ı try break pad cleaner on my car and motorcycle, it stopped squeaking noise on motorcycle disk but didn't improve anything on my car. look like silicone spray is way to go :)@@suburbangardenshed

A trick I've used to save 10"s of thousands of dollars in machinery. Especially when compressed air runs in it. The compressed air hold humidity which in turn causes rust and premature wear on cylinders and bearings. Use (WD40 rust REMOVER) its not conventional WD40. It creates a film that also lubricated.. I've had machinery manufacturers tell me to replace a 20k motor for an issue. That I resolved with a 12$ can of Wd40 rust REMOVER. You must understand that this is relatively new technology that didn't exist 10 years ago. It's truly a game changer.

@suburbangardenshed 2 месяца назад

Yer some the specialist products are incredible that WD-40, CRC and Inox have engineered. Googling for an exact spray is almost a good choice before using with WD40 or Silicone. But I really appreciate that tip as I'm confident Ill be needing to deal with rust in the future.

@rheakinn3196 3 месяца назад

Really big thanks for the video, so far the only one that explains the different types of sprays thoroughly. How would silicone spray act on bike chains? Would it be an effective method of protecting the chain? Or would i be better off using a bike lube (specialized lube) ? Or its better to use a bike lube and spray silicone over it? Love the video!

@suburbangardenshed 3 месяца назад

No worries and glad you liked the video. Personally I would use a a specialty product for it. WD 40 have a lubricant designed exactly for bike chains. Its called WD 40 Bike Chain Lubricant and it comes in a grey can. (In Australia anyway). Also sorry for my slower reply :)

What do you recommend for a sliding glass door? The metal wheels may be rusty or dirty but the door cannot be removed from the track. A repairman suggested a dry lubricant because it will not attract dirt. Do you agree?

@suburbangardenshed 4 месяца назад

I'll be honest and say that I don't know that much about dry lubricants yet so it's something I'll have to research. I did see that it's specifically designed to not attract particles. With out using dry lubricant my plan would have been silicon spray but I can't say confidently whether dry lube or silicon is better

@alexbordo4449 2 месяца назад

Avoid all sprays around paint shops of any type.

@suburbangardenshed 2 месяца назад

Good to know, cheers. I suppose that makes sense when I think about it :)

What about Silicone vs dry PTFE spray, the final battle?

@suburbangardenshed 3 месяца назад

That's a great idea for a future video. Thanks :)

@chillios2222 5 месяцев назад

we will see, rusted out master lock just hit it with the WD Silicon so we will see….

@suburbangardenshed 4 месяца назад

How did it go for you :) Did you see any brownish liquid come out after the WD 40 spray?

@wclark3196 4 месяца назад

This was really useful. I know just enough about the topic to know you're not full of crap. :). I bought some silicone spray because I want to lubricate a plastic part that moves along a metal rail and I know using anything with petroleum would be a bad idea, but wanted to be sure that silicone spray was definitely the right choice. Now I feel confident. Thank you.

@suburbangardenshed 4 месяца назад

I'm glad you found this useful and I'm taking this as a massive compliment :)
