WD-40 has been designated the "official multi-purpose problem-solver of NASCAR," a ringing endorsement if there ever was one. In celebration of their 50th year, the company conducted a contest to learn the favorite uses of it's customers and fan club members, (Yes, there is a WD-40 Fan Club).
They compiled the information to identify the favorite use in each of the 50 states. Naturally I wa s curious about Georgia and Alabama and found the favorite use in both states was that it "penetrates stuck bolts, lug nuts, and hose ends." Florida's favorite use was "cleans and removes love bugs from grills and bumpers." California's favorite use was penetrating the bolts on the Golden Gate Bridge.
Let me close with one final, wonderful use -- the favorite use in the State of New York --WD-40 protects the Statue of Liberty from the elements.
No wonder they've had 50 successful years.
