I have used WD 40 since the early 1960s, in large quantities .I was an electrical maintenance and trouble shooter in the Marine trade,with side experience in automotive electrics,using same.As we all know ,there is nothing quite like salt water to play havoc with electrical components.We found WD40 valuable in combatting same.There were many times when we nearly bathed in it,and I still have it in my workshop,wouldn't be without it.So far I can't say I have had any noticeable side effects .I wouldn't recommend drinking it tho.
