WD40 is a good penetrating oil to use in certain situations. I have always been in the CRC 5-56 camp though which I find works better to help loosen rusty bolts and whatnot. But yes, it is important to know that while it *does* lubricate it's not it's primary intended purpose and won't work as well as products that are intended for doing that. And while on that subject, not all lubricants are created equal, they each have their intended use for different parts and purposes. Some will be downright detrimental in some circumstances while absolutely perfect in others. To select which kind of lubricant you need to do some research. I can understand why people are confused, because WD40 claim themselves to be a lubricant. They are just not that honest with just how bad it is. You can slap a label that says "lubricant" on a bottle of olive oil and you would not be incorrect. Hell, spit on something and it is technically a lubricant if it lowers friction.

Wd-40 is a seeping penetrant, it also dries up water logged metal quickly
