ClemBert, each of those examples you posted shows an acceptable way to use WD-40. I have nothing against using it in those ways. Used like that, it will not get the chance to build up.

The reason I caution people is that there are a very large number of gun owners that will just keep spraying and spraying over the years thinking that they are doing the right thing. The very fact that you are an active participant here would tend to indicate to me that you are not that type of gun owner -therefore, it would never be an issue for you. I have no guarantee that other casual forum readers would be as diligent in keeping their weapons clean.
