I've never used that, but a couple days ago I ran out of solvent and Google'd substitutes as I couldn't get to galaxy anytime soon. One of the suggestion was wd40. I ended up with odorless mineral spirits that I picked up from Wal-Mart. Never thought about wd40 but if it works then why not!?

I disagree with the lubricant argument. We would use wd40 to put out bmx grips on bare chrome steel handlebars. We did this because it would glue the rubber grip to the bar. Never any slip and stuck tight in minuets. So much better than hairspray that took forever to dry.

I've always used WD40. A lot of the old timers used lighter fluid, before Bic lighters became popular.

Using WD-40 on grips reminds me of guys using shafting beads all the time. Guys training for a darwin award were granted a pardon.

Fascinating... WD40 publishes a list of over 2000 uses of WD40, including 28 that are golf-related. Including removing dead insects from golf carts, or spraying on golf glove to keep it from drying out. But none of the 28 are related to installing grips. Kinda funny.

I use painters tape and just a tiny spray of wd40 with my golf pride tour wraps and never have an issue...

WD-40 is a crappy lubricant and a Jack of all trades master of none. I wouldn't use it for anything.
