I went over, woke him up, and told him the bad news. He was very upset
and was trying to figure out what to do -- probably nothing until Monday
morning,since nothing was open.

Another neighbor came out and told him to get his WD-40 and clean it
off. It removed the unwanted paint beautifully and did not harm his
paint job that was on the truck.

I'm impressed! WD-40 -- who knew? Water Displacement #40.

The product began from a search for a rust preventive solvent and
degreaser to protect missile parts. WD-40 was created in 1953 by three
technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes
from the project that was to find a "water displacement" compound. They
were successful with the fortieth formulation, thus WD-40.

The Corvair Company bought it in bulk to protect their Atlas missile
parts. Ken East (one of the original founders) says there is nothing in
WD-40 that would hurt you.

When you read the "shower door" part, try it. It's the first thing that
has ever cleaned that spotty shower door . If yours is plastic, it works
just as well as glass. It's a miracle! Then try it on your stovetop...
Voila! It's now shinier than it's ever been. You'll be amazed.

P. S. The basic ingredient is FISH OIL.
P. P. S. I keep a can of WD-40 in my kitchen cabinet over the stove. It
is good for oven burns or any other type of burn. It takes the burned
feeling away and heals with NO scarring.
