Prioritize safety and prolong the life of your equipment and vehicles with this proactive, cost saving, strategy. All you need is a few cans of WD-40 Brand products!
Step 1: Prep It
Prepping correctly can help you determine the scope of the project. Fast acting penetrants and multi-purpose lubricants can help break down tough rust and assist in part replacement where needed.
Step 2: Clean It
Apply degreasers to the surface to remove any prior lubrication, dirt or debris. Powerful solvent-based degreasers help break down tough grease and non-aerosol degreasers with biodegradable solvents can be used in areas such as shop floors or in food processing facilities.
Step 3: Lube It
Lubricate surfaces to maintain their efficiency, functionality, and optimize long-term lubrication on specific jobs. White lithium greases help with metal-on-metal contact, dry lubricants with high use, repetitive mechanisms and gel lubricants are perfect for vertical or fast-moving surfaces.
Step 4: Protect It
Select the appropriate product to protect the surface for long-term use, limiting the buildup of rust. Products like WD-40’s new EZ-Reach can help you lubricate tight spaces with an 8-inch flexible straw. For longer lasting lubrication on various surfaces, a silicone-based lubricant is the go-to solution. |
