    Sorry Marco......your moderators comments were directed at the wrong person.. in a curt manner...He was not the one asking why why why...( your mod quoted him in the post..Martin was just answering the why why why's and politely at that saying he wasn't sure )and saying he heard him the first time. He was not the one that needed it spelling out to him......He then politely went on to explain how the stuff is meant to be used....i guess we'll just have to agree to disagree....it's sad when it sinks to this....every god damned time this subject of mains products comes up...all the experts raise their heads....I notice all the experts ask for proof..but don't supply proof as to why it cannot possibly work...It can't be proved, doesn't mean it can't work..I have no proof...only what I hear with mine own ears...and it's always the same old members..shoving their point down the posters necks......

    Wow.

    I think you are blowing this up a bit Marco to be honest.

    My use of words may come over as a bit curt, but then so is someone literally saying they will spell “something out for me” in response to my reply to a different poster. I didn’t request clarification and like I had already said I don’t have valves. M

    Your not interested in that context though as you have confessed , because he’s your mate and on the staff he is allowed to be patronising I guess, is that how it works here?

    Although I don’t have valves , in response to Antony’s apparent concerns. I did go to some lengths to give as much context to the use of this product safely for all concerned.

    Its this stuff, IPA and a bit of hexane, nothing like the lubricant.

    Not blowing it up at all, Martin. We're very strict on that sort of thing here, and *insist* on people being polite to each other at all times. Now, I have no problem whatsoever with anything else you wrote, which was perfectly polite, except that bit.

    So please, in future, learn to defend your point of view and discuss things with others without being so curt, and there will be no problems

    Marco.

    Yeah...when this stuff was initially marketed...it was a water displacement liquid and not really a good lubricant at all..it was and still is a good penetrant too...but the WD40 part of it is a trade name and they make all kinds of products now...

    Hi Alan,
    My comments on this thread were not intended to cause confusion, insult, or as you put it, clever dickery, the reason i mentioned copperslip, and similar products is because i actualy care about people, and the equipment they use, i have been in this industry for near aproaching 25 years, and have seen all sorts in that time, where posible, i will try and share some of those experiences, this was one of those paticular times.
