Scotty Kilmer great advice and video.
Scotty Kilmer Scotty much love hope I win some wd-40
@James ct precisely.
Scotty your videos have saved me a small fortune. Thanks
Alan
yes
It does work, I sprayed it on my wife during our vacation, she didn’t squeak anymore
Ain't a can big enough for my wife.
Is sex better with WD-40..?
Squeaky wife is worse than bored cop.
Worked for the Tin Man at the 4:06 mark so makes sense..
I will give it a go, good info thanks.
I watch Scotty to learn automotive things but mainly to get into a good mood! He never lets me down!
Love him for both too!
May be honest, but poor mechanic on a lot of fronts giving bad advice.
@@billbrugh9308 he talks too fast unable to understand what he means if your are not american
@@gardolapfuat42 no you just dont understand basic english/american
@@Kevin-xq2tv i understand Mike Durland but it is not easy for Scotty Kilmer i mean
Scotty. You must get loads of "fan" mail, but at 70 I've just gotten onto looking under my MGs hood. You really are a lifesaver for people like me, don't stop, don't stop. We still new you buddy.
Hit the nail on the head and the ball out of the ball park. I'm right behind you Scotty with about 45 years experience and I agree with every application you sited!
As a locksmith in Houston our company refused to use graphite to lubricate any lock, we always used WD40 and pointed customers toward it. Graphite builds up in locks because it is a powder, I have seen locks so full that we had to disassemble them and wash out the graphite the customer put in it. Expensive lesson for them.
I'm sure glad to learn this. I had been taught that graphite was the only way to go. No more of that for me!
WD 40 has a graphine lube......
I use triflow and have for a long time...very good lock lube and all all around lube!
@R Lan About how much does it cost to get 2 door and 1 trunk lock re-keyed? I bought a used 1996 Ford Thunderbird and didn't do my due diligence by checking all of the locks. The key works for the driver's door, but it doesn't work for the passenger door and trunk. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Peace
@behexen250 Right on! Thank you for the time. Peace
12 years Automotive locksmith here. First I got to say I love your videos. Keep em coming. You're great! Second: On locks, use WD40 with grease in it. It's a black and yellow can. It says Lithium grease on it under WD40. The reason you don't want to use the blue WD40 is because it evaporates quickly and drys off (Like the shine that fades off the paint). Leaving your lock more sticky than it was, and with all the old solidified grease and pieces of dust nesting in there, it causes faster wear on the wafers inside, as well as making you torque the key harder which will eventually break it. And if you have a car with a remote head key, it will break the blade off the plastic casing. The Lithium grease keeps it lubricated longer. And yes, absolutely no graphite in the locks people! Unless you like calling locksmiths and getting stuck.
Any opinions on teflon lubricants?
@@moabfool I don't use them. Don't have an opinion.
Pb blaster works best
@@Natures_Symmetry Great post. I have the lithium and use it as well.
So what's so bad about graphite? I've been using that in locks for 57 years without having any problems since it is a dry lubricant that's too soft to harm metals. Graphite also is an excellent anti-seize for spark plugs since it conducts electricity.
Sometimes the more honest you try to be the more people don't trust you.
Iv been building and fixing hotrods, muscle cars,races cars,engines and suspensions since i was probably around 14. I bought a 41 Ford business coupe for $35 and was allowed to keep in a corner of my buddies Dads shop that was never used anyway. That gave me access to everything i needed to build it. Im 73 now still doing it to some degree.
Scotty is as Amazing as WD-40, what a Legend that has so much more to give, thankfully for us all.
Imagine a world where everyone and every company and person was as honest as this and what a world it would be!?
The 1000 years millennium would be just like him but 100x better.
Don't get me wrong, I love Scotty. His vids have really expanded my car knowledge. But parts of this vid did kinda scream advertisement to me. Def not against great creators making a buck off a product they trust but would hope they'd disclose it.
We would have flying cars like what back to the future predicted 😅
What I like most is his videos are Short without filler info and he is very Energetic.
Use WD-40 to clean a bike chain before lube. Works great.
Yep
Best thing to use is reducer gear grease with a bit heat so it melts into the chain. I drowe bike in winter every day trough salt and water. Not a sign of rust!
That stuff is so freaking stiff to stay.
It will penetrate Orings and Xrings, then dissolve the factory grease that the rings are designed to seal in.
Regular WD 40 is mostly intended as Scotty says….to dispel moisture and loosen rusted/stuck parts, but its lubricating properties are minimal, and in fact it will flush lube oils and greases away resulting in increased wear. So don’t use it on say bike chains - it will flush the grease from the links leaving you a lovely clean chain that will wear fast. Use real oil or better still ‘high cling’ proprietary chain lube. WD40 does work well cleaning old thick black gunge from moving parts, just be sure to use a good oil afterwards. Did this very thing on my house front door yesterday when the dead bolt latch seized solid. Inside the mech was solid with thick black aged greasy gunge…WD40 on tissue returned it to near new. Then I oiled it with light “3 in 1” and the door now operates buttery smooth. Took twenty minutes to strip, clean and reassemble…A job the locksmith would have charged well over 100 Quid to be called out for!!!
White lithium grease
All I can say is thank you Scotty because there's nobody out there that explains it perfect like the way you do!🤔
Engineer’s Axiom: If it moves and it shouldn’t, use duct tape. If it doesn’t move and it should, use WD-40!
👍
Indeed🤔
And for everything else: there's mastercard
My mate was a Land rover mechanic. Hit it with a hammer, and if that doesn't work, get a bigger hammer.
Get high and watch this video. It's real trippy. ROFL LMAO !!!!!!!!!!!
Wd-40 works good for drilling aluminum too. It doesn't clog up the flutes on the drill bit.
use that and duralube for metal drilling and tapping. they work freakin great
Thank you
I pretty much always use it for machining. Cutting fluid is harder to come by and doesn't come in a spray can so it's just not as convenient, I just wouldn't use any kind of WD 40 on anything making sparks since it has propane and butane in it.
WD-40 is a can of magic, it has so many purposes.
And saw cutting plexy glass too.
Can confirm about using WD-40 on locks, bought my car 3 years ago and it had a siezed passenger lock. Sprayed some on and it immediately started working again. 3 years later, still no problems.
P Blaster is my choice for rusty bolts, I first heard about it from a mechanic friend , the formula has a catalyst in it that dissolves rust!
Hey Scotty. Instead of WD40 for underbody protection from rust, here in the Land Down Under we use lanolin underbody when we beach drive. It's much better as it stays on longer and it's a natural product, wool fat, so it doesn't cause any run off problems. We call it Lanotec.
Check out Fluid film. I use it on my jetskis I ride in the ocean.
I would call it lanoliner.
The moment he said "Do NOT spray WD-40 on your serpentine belt" I instantly lowered my head in shame
come as you are Guilty as Charged!!! 😔
Man
Actually you can do that to clean it, but then you need to spray de-greaser on it after. That will pull most of the dirt off :)
@@BlatentlyFakeName or just let it run. So it cleans itself instead of oiling it and drying it out after that.
Years ago I “fixed” the belt with WD40. My dad lowered his head in shame when I told him 🤣
When I worked in the oil field we’d use wd-40 on our water pumps coil wire if they got wet from raining or whatever an stopped running. Worked like a charm!!
My 03 tundra keys were not working on the door . I followed Scotty instruction. It worked . Thank you Scotty
I'm like you Scotty, I've used it for atleast 50+ years also. I was a trucker for over 44 years and I hauled giant loads from coast to coast and I used WD -40 for all my chain Rackets and Binders for they would get all rusty and I had to keep them working right.
My keys were sticking in the ignition, door, etc, sometimes the car wouldn't start. Big thing that ruins ignition switches is worn keys. After decades the keys are worn, and the keys you have cut at the store are nothing but copies of worn keys. I had a locksmith come out and cut keys from the dealer code for my 23 year old Camry. He is the one that enlightened me to that fact. Cost me $250.00 for keys but now they work like new. He said it would take a week or two for the tumblers to readjust to the original key and thats exactly what happened. I was kinda shocked, but the locksmith knew his stuff. Btw, the cut of the new keys looks nothing like the cut of the 23 year old keys.
I was planning on making new keys for my 18 y/o Camry. I wondered if they would cut the worn keys or make one from a car key database, or something like that.
Thanks for sharing.
David Nieves Jr.
It’s very easy to change your ignition. Cheaper too.
A new ignition tumbler with keys is 35.99 on Rockauto. For a 97 camry.
@@chrisj197438 yeah always check first. 250 to cut a key from a key code is a scam.
@@chrisj197438 The same key unlocks the doors and trunk. Sometimes those are hard to open. I think I'll get a new key. I plan on keeping this car for a long time.
I want to thankyou Scotty every time I feel that my garage is getting too messy I go to your site and see yours I feel a lot better!
Oh boy Now I feel better about my garage for sure
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m 70 years old I haven’t driven in a long time but I enjoy listening to a bright guy was good advice we should have more experts like you were all sorts of different topics keep up the good work
Scotty...I lived in Niagara Falls for years....no matter how long you've been in Texas, I can still hear that Western NY accent, clear as day!
Niagara Falls,...slowly I turn,...step by step,...inch by inch
Most definitely N Y accent ... almost from the stix
Thanks Scotty. It gives me courage (peace of mind) whenever I want to unleash on my car with WD40. Its about the 10th time Ive referred back to this video. Thank-you
Thanks Scotty I appreciate all your knowledge 😃 I have a 2014 Camry SE and you helped me with my car repairs
Love your enthusiasm and the happy smile you bring to your videos
I have been in the car biz for 25 years and your tips are spot on.
I like the way he's always appearing from the trunk of his Celica. 😂
I like how the garage and driveway is nice and clean , well organized !
Your great Scotty ...you help a lot of folks out ...your quite the character ...never change buddy ...thumbs up!
Reminds me of King of the hill. Hank sprays his wd 40 can to open his wd 40 can lol
Hahahah
Awesome. I remember that. Lol
I tell you what!
I was waiting for the picture to appear
Dahaha when hes vacationing in Mexico with Kahn 🤣👍🏻
Definitely something we all need in this world. Took out the squeak in my door hinges instantly.
It’s ironic that the WD-40 silicone can is rusted.
Why? Do you spray all your WD-40 cans with WD-40?
Love this guy. Hard to take him seriously. His pop up pics and hilarious enthusiam cracks me up 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤
I take him very seriously! Love the pop-ups, his laugh, everything!
I just love the energy of these videos. Educational and entertaining.
"You don't want to lubricate your tires!" made me LOL
I knew a guy who sprayed it all over his breaks..
Every time we travel, we end up with squeaky doors where we stay. Finally learn to carry wd40 with us. Like Scotty stated carry along.
Years ago before there was a plethora of tire products some people would use brake fluid to shine tires. I hadn’t heard of people using WD-40 though.
it will save your gas consumption actually
Great. Another Informative Video. Thank You for taking the time to make this video.
This guy is a Saint, love his videos, very informative and helpful. Thank you Scotty.
Wd40 is also good to remove price stickers from stuffs.
Great video Scotty.
Thanks
Yeah, but how do you remove that smell
SUGAR XYLER ! Damned that stuff do stink
Scotty you are right, that product and the silicon spray is very good, and had a lot of different uses in your car and home. Congrats from Chile.
I’m a Scotty Kilmer graduate!!
Thank you sir, you have helped me and my kids tons
yes its good stuff you can also you it to remove glue residue ...like from when you pull off the duck tape and so on ...
Actually if it’s a hard surface duct tape works best to remove the residue.
Wrap a piece up backwards around your hand and use quick hitting/slapping motions.
@Billy Gildark Thanks for the tip, never thought about trying that!
I usually use isopropyl alcohol myself (acetone if that fails, but I try not to near plastic, paint, and other sensitive surfaces, since it can discolor, crack,remove, or otherwise damage those surfaces - my wife still hasn't forgiven me for getting a bit of acetone on our stained kitchen table, which now has a runner to cover that mistake...). In one instance though, neither isopropyl nor acetone worked, but Goo Gone Automotive did (I believe it was an old and particularly tenacious bumper sticker over a painted surface that left lots of residue), which surprised me since I thought it was mostly acetone...
I've also used WD-40 to remove tar spots from the painting in my car :)
I need to put some on one of my vehicles to remove tape residue then
Travel the moment . Hmmmmm and here was me thinking it is called Duct Tape but you call it Duck Tape. Can you please tell me what part of the Duck is used???
"The guys in Galveston will spray their stuff" - the tin man is killing me... 4:06
Thanks for helping us keep our cars running.
Your knowledge is truly priceless, I wish I could bring my car to you!
Free knowledge is always great. Especially from Scotty with experience
Whatever the subject, Scotty is the man when it comes to cars.
Scotty, you are my true inspiration because we think almost alike when it comes to cars; we are cheap and tend to keep our cars for a very long time. My 2 Toyota cars are 14 and 21 years old.
@KV high five... 2002 Tundra 350K km & 2006 Solara 136K km
WD-40 on the struts, and bushing was the best part! Thanks so much. I'm going to try tomorrow.
WD stands for Water Displacement. I've always used WD-40 in my door locks after washing the car - especially in the winter - to keep the locks lubed AND free of water. Did you ever have ice in the lock? In the days before remote door lock openers, this was a truly bad situation. Likewise, I sprayed it in my trunk lock and ignition switch just like you did. I'm older than you, so I've probably been doing it longer. It's nice to know that I've been doing something right, for a change.
It also stands for "Well DUH" (everyone knows that).
Is WD40 better than lock-ease with graphite?
I never even considered coating the bottom of my cars with WD-40. Sold!
(From Rusty Wisconsin)
Me either. But I will this winter
Fluid film is better for that
@@trentryan27 what is fluid film ? Between the ocean. And salt on roads. Cars don't last long here.
Green Leader its a waxy like rust inhibitor, comes in a spray can, can get it at pretty much any auto store
I sprayed the rusty bottom of my Michigan car this spring, I gotta say, looks 10x better than before. It might not reverse the damage but at least I hope it slows or halts it down.
Your videos are so informative. I use WD silicone on rubber and use WD lithium for metal on metal (i.e. hinges)
I am becoming a road warrior thanks to this man! God bless an honest Abe!
I use WD40 as a cutting agent. works perfectly when your drill bits have trouble biting.
Actually... not to be a jerk but WD-40 makes the drill bit slip on the steel. Thats why you see the chips turn blue. It creates heat. Try using the peck method. It’ll save your bits from dulling. ☮️
@@CamMacMastermusic That's not how cutting fluid works. It certainly doesn't make it slip. It lubricates the chip excavation and non cutting parts of the tool, as well as cools the area. WD40 is a very effective cutting lubricant for aluminium machining. Not great for steel though.
@ J Mack Like a chicken peck. 2 seconds drilling and 2 seconds cooling.
Grumpy Modeler ... Potato-Potatoe the truth is that, mild steel requires no lube or coolant at all. Drill bits are usually made of tungsten steel which doesn’t like temperature spikes. Also aluminum is very soft and doesn’t require any lube for manual drilling. Only when you’re drilling stainless or very hard steels like it is it necessary to use lube or coolant and you can look it up anywhere and it will say WD40 isn’t recommended when drilling on these tougher steels.
@J Mack When you drill a little bit raise the drill let the chips come out of the hole you're drilling, which prevents binding of the chips, excessive heat buildup. Which can dull the drill much faster, and also gives you longer stringy chips that are dangerous when they spin around, and you can get cut very badly from them.
Severely rusted bolts home mix 50/50 Acetone/Automatic Trans Fluid.
Proven least breaking torque.
Wish I could give this more thumbs up!
Tasty!
Or soak in diesel fuel. Works great
Replaced the belt tensioner on my Lincoln Mark VIII and no more squeaking. It was a very easy job. I use PB Blaster for rusty bolts.
i used it on my shifting stick mechanism it was dirty from the years and with little movement it went great and still going smooth for a few months now. Also i use it on my door bench mechanism (i got a coupe). it turn down the dust and make the mechanism smoother.
Hands down you're my favorite mechanic on TH-cam most informative and knowledgeable as well keep up the good work!
Now if Scotty could just change that line about rev up your engine to "REV UP YER WEINER"...
50 years of using this stuff... blunts 😂😂😂😂 love the creativity
After watching this video about adding refrigerant to our 2003 Buick I am glad I let the dealer do it.Did not know it’s so involved.
Scotty I have tried gas treatment CRF 505 on my 03 Silverado and I can feel my engine go faster and smoother. Thanks,
Did I just see scotty use a picture of the Tin Man using WD-40 to jerk his love rod?
We did
Can't let it rust...lol
No
4:05 lol
You saw it, you can't un-see it!
Scotty, as always you are a treasure chest of good information, God bless you and yours, because you bless a lot of others out here in You Tube land.
Thank you Scotty. I love your channel!
Straight valuable advice. That is a good man right here!
Scotty, thank you so much for your Great videos!! I am an older lady, and write down so much of your
Teachings, so when I take my car (2012 Nissan Moreno) into be checked, by my sweet mechanic, I am able to speak more intelligently!!!!!!!! Thank you !
Thank you, Scotty. Appreciate your presentation. I always learn something from you. Thank you.
Hi Scotty I've watched many of your videos and just want to say Scotty You Are A Mechanic GOD!!!! 😁👍
It's really fun to watch you and learn Mr. Scotty, thank you
this WD 40 made my sheds lock smooth when I was almost going to break it to open the shed. great for everything that moves and metal.
As messy as that garage is I’m sure Scotty knows exactly where everything’s at.
Or even where everything IS.
It’s an organized mess 😁
Good stuff.
Thank you Scotty!
Great for light scratch removal too.
I love you Scotty, you are a life saver! I enjoy your programs, because they are a great help to us all, and I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH! 💯❤️🙏
I've a doubt you can use regular WD40 on rubber; it might deteriorate it in a while. Instead, use a silicon lubricant.
I really do apreciate your knowledge Scotty, I bought a 1992 Ford Sierra (Ford Merkur in USA) and Im learning a lot of stuff, thank you!! I like your voice tone aswell. Good content! Have a nice everything greets from Spain
Glad he mentioned the silicone oil version of WD40. Another thing to think about is chemistry, and specifically the saying, "Like dissolves like". Petro oils can dissolve other petro products. Silicone oils can dissolve silicone products, so be careful using silicone gel to lubricate silicone hoses, for instance. In that case, it would be better to use Vaseline, but with rubber hoses, Vaseline will dissolve them and cause them to fail prematurely. WD40 is a penetrating oil and will actually cause metal to rust over time because it penetrates it, which is why there are rusty hinges on that 'Yota in the first place. The only thing I would use regular WD40 on is already rusted bolts and nuts, and even then I would not use it over P-Blaster, which is WD40's big brother.
Good call, i am in Canada, use WD 40 in wheel wells and undercarriage 2X per winter
Back in 80's i use to spray my stuff before dates 😂😂......The car of course lol
Me too. Axe burns like hell
Wd-40 i always wondered why tin man always bought case loads of this ..now i know thanks scotty...
Scotty k I have learnt so much from you and have learnt a lot my self to..you just have me smiling so much for your openess and unisty ..I am just as you bro and won't change for nothing👍✌
I spray it in my padlocks on the shed about once a year. Makes em easier to turn the key and keeps them that way through rainy winters. Never caused a problem by spraying it in a lock.
Scotty I’ve been using this for everything for years. I now wear it as aftershave. The ladies love it.
Driver 302 😂
You must have Duct Tape too?
Stay away from open flames
@@robertadryan3996Endeavor 2.0😂 IDK Why , my imagination does this
Scotty, you are the best of the best man! I always checkout your channel when I need to know.
WD 40 for locks is great, prevents them from seizing up, and keeps the mechanisms inside clean/dirt free. Lock lubricants are just basically the very same thing, and more expensive.
Always helpful. Thanks
I use WD a lot, and believe me it really works well. My front door was giving me a problem when I turn the key, so I sprayed the key and inserted it the lock and it worked perfectly. That makes me know that you are what you are, A GREAT MACHANIC and I trust that everyone thinks so as well. Keep helping us with your knowledge, I feel this is your gift to us all. I Thank You, and Pray that you stay safe! ❤️💯🙏
You need to spray the top of the Silicone can with WD-40 😁
Love your channel! Thanks for all the tips.
I honestly prefer Silicon Spray, which the company WD40 makes, but you can find from many other brands.
Silicon spray is quite better in repelling water, does not leave the mess the original WD40 leaves behind, and it does not smell as much.
Due to the silicon water repelling properties, it is quite suitable for exterior door locks, door jams, and windows.
Around the house, I use PTFE spray, which the company WD40 also produces, which is quite less oily and improves friction.
For example, I use it on the curtain slider, gas structs, and interior doors.
You also have lithium spray, which is quite good on particularly exposed places, like on the undercarriage of your car.
Fair warning: it leaves a white lithium film behind.
All this to say: use the correct product for the correct application.
Otherwise, you may damage or stain things you do not want.
6:09 Great vintage can. The patina is beautiful.
I’ve used WD-40 to remove paint transfer scuff marks.
i used wd40 on my dads 82 coupe de ville back in 1992, I remember that year the tumbler was waay too easy and eventually any key would turn the switch. It was cool cuz we would use different keys to sneak the caddy out at night when pops was sleeping.
Thanks Scott. I'm learning a lot from you. I'm in Ghana and want to start
I loved the advice you gave for changing the spark plugs on my Toyota Tundra. My 2016 Tundra has 42,000 miles on it and my Check Engine light came on. We plugged in an engine diagnostic meter and it said my #8 sparkplug was not firing properly on start up. I also noticed that on startup after the truck had sat overnight I got a cloud of smoke come out the exhaust. Isn't it a little early for me to have problems with leaky cylinders?
Ironically I just used WD 40 silicone on my Mother's car. Her cars automatic antenna was laboring. Working like new now.
Did the rubber window seals like Scotty demonstrated too!
Congrats. I'm sure your mother is glad she didn't have an abortion now! :)
By the way, I have spent hours watching your excellent videos. Great work and we appreciate it.
Cut and dry advise! Thank you!
