i put in a new stereo it needs more speakers now hehe

bought a new stereo , umm with new speakers to lol from Walmart for $85

Took her for a little spin, sprayed w-d40 on my wheels,put some stabil in the tank and put her away for awhile! Under and key!!

I did complete detail inside and out on my Ford.Wash,polish wheels and other chrome,rinsed the undercarriage with a high pressure nozzle,vacuumed and polished interior wood.and drove my Dodge around the block 2 times.I also picked up some oil and a Napa filter but ran out of daylight.

I assume WD-40 to stop rust on the chrome?

I thought WD-40 attracted water and was not recommended for that?

I switched to another brand [the name escapes me right at the moment] to avoid any issues like that since I'm right here at the beach, which can be as bad or worse as the rust belt.

Drove it to church and was ridiculed for being a hippie.... WTF? Then cleaned it out cleaned the windows, ran the vacuum but still ain't washed it yet. Family road with comfort though.

WD stands for water displacement, it was the 40th formula they tried, and it worked so they got their name.

I've never had any luck with it preventing corrosion long term, almost the opposite. I'd make sure it never touched my tires. Petroleum distillates and rubber do not mix.

and it was originally made as a medicine.

PB Blaster? I use that for bolts and stuff but I always spray my bike with it as well for the winter. Keep in mind my bike and van are in a insulated building so its just overkill!!
