WD-40 isn’t just a lubricant — you can use it to protect and clean all sorts of things in your home. Even though there are over 2,000 WD-40 uses according to the manufacturer, I’m only going to list my top 10 WD-40 hacks that people in my life swear by.
If you’d rather use traditional household products instead of these WD-40 alternative uses, make sure you use a coupon! See all the best household coupons and deals right here on KCL.

1. Use this WD-40 toilet hack the next time you clean the bathroom.

The solvents in WD-40 will help dissolve any gunk and lime in your toilet. Spray WD-40 in your toilet bowl for a couple of seconds and use a toilet brush to help scrub away the grime.
Â
2. Removing crayon marks on walls and clothing is one of the best WD-40 uses.
Use WD-40 to remove crayon or marker from walls. (BUT, only use on walls with a sheen to the paint—the oil in WD-40 can stain matte or flat paints!) Wipe away the stain with a clean rag.
WD-40 will also remove marker and crayon from furniture and appliances!

4. Get rid of stickers and stuck-on adhesive with WD-40.

Spray WD-40 onto leftover sticker and label residue, then let it set for at least 5 minutes. Use a sponge to scrub away the glue and paper.
Â
5. Remove stuck rings with this WD-40 hack.

Spray WD-40 around the stuck ring and it should easily slide off. Then use these ring cleaning hacks to get your bling looking as good as new again.
Â
6. Wipe away tea and coffee stains from countertops.


Some people use WD-40 as a degreaser, but I like to spray a little on a sponge or damp cloth and wipe tea and coffee stains away.
Â
7. Keep scissors working smoothly (especially if you’re into coupons).

Your scissors have been working hard clipping all those free coupons. Give them a little WD-40 love to keep them working well so you can keep saving money.

Â
8. Prevent snow buildup on windows. 

This is one of my favorite winter and WD-40 hacks. The snow won’t stick when you spray WD-40 on car or home windows before a storm.
Â
9. WD-40 can also clean off chewing gum.


Have gum stuck in your carpet, shoe, or hair? Spray WD-40 directly on, allow it to set for a few minutes, then pull the gum off.
Â
10. Use WD-40 to waterproof shoes.

Is your mind blown by all the WD-40 uses yet?!
Not only does WD-40 create a waterproof barrier on shoes, it will also help remove any salt stains on boots during the winter months. Just spray onto the stains and wipe with a clean rag.
