So in my inbox this morning, I received a message explaining the benefits of WD-40. Rather than re-post the whole list to my blog, I’ll just link to some sites that have the list.
The one that stuck out in my mind was that WD-40 “Gives floors that ‘just-waxed’ sheen without making it slippery”.
I attempted this feat once with Armor-All.
Well, it made the floor shiny, at least.
I’ll leave it to Christy to describe the implications of that exciting month…
LOL
Yes, well. I had asked Matt to mop the floor one day, several years ago. This is a relatively rare request. I left for a couple hours and came back to a very excited Matt.
We’d lived in this house for a couple years and our floors just weren’t shiny like they used to be, so Matt decided to do something about it. He scrubbed the floor with armor all!
I was shocked. And wow, did it shine! Every time Zach and Sara walked into the kitchen for the next month they fell down. Poor kids probably felt like it was a form of abuse. Bare feet or socks, didn’t matter, you were likely to at least slide a few inches and find yourself trying to catch your balance. We didn’t wear shoes in the house at that point in time, but on occasion, it became rather squeeky in the kitchen!
I thought that stuff would never wear off. At least it taught the kids not to run in the kitchen!–
