We are so stoked to be partnering with WD-40 for their Theres Always Another Use Challenge!
Al was first introduced to WD-40 by his dad when he was a kid, who showed him how to use it on the bearings of his skateboard wheels. Ever since then he’s always kept a can at arms reach, from his toolbox when he worked as a chippy, to the workshop and the Low Odour he keeps in the glovebox.
Share your best WD-40 tip & go into the chance to WIN 1k, head to WD-40 for details #TheresAlwaysAnotherUseChallenge

Workshop Tip
If your tools are starting to jam up with dirt, grease or rust, spray WD-40 and give them a really good clean with a rag. They’ll come up as good as new, protect your tools and prevent further corrosion.
