Anybody have thoughts on using WD 40 as a cable lubricant? I know it is a water displacement formula and a penetrant, but this seems to be something that it would work well for.
My entire riding life I've been advised to stay away from wet lubricants like WD-40 and to use graphite based dry lube products on control cables. Might have a bit to do with the solvent base WD uses as a carrier interacting with the plastic sleeve on the control lines...
It does appear, however, that the Scooter Therapy cat is using WD-40 in the demo attached to the link above so this could easily be another case of "what do I know?"
