WHATS THE MAIN INGREDIENT IN WD-40

Before you read to the end, does anybody know what the main
> ingredient of WD-40 is? Don't lie and don't cheat. WD-40. Who knew;
> I had a neighbor who bought a new pickup. I got up very early one
> Sunday morning and saw that someone had spray painted red all around the
> sides of this beige truck (for some unknown reason). I went over, woke
> him up, and told him the bad news. He was very upset and was trying to
> figure out what to do.... probably nothing until Monday morning, since
> nothing was open. Another neighbor came out and told him to get his
> WD-40 and clean it off. It removed the unwanted paint beautifully and
> did not harm his paint job that was on the truck. I'm impressed!
> WD-40 who knew? 'Water Displacement #40'. The product began from a
> search for a rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect missile
> parts. WD-40 was created in 1953 by three technicians at the San Diego
> Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to
> find a 'water displacement' compound.. They were successful with the
> fortieth formulation, thus WD-40. The Convair Company bought it in
> bulk to protect their atlas missile parts. Ken East (one of the
> original founders) says there is nothing in WD-40 that would hurt
> you... When you read the 'shower door' part, try it. It's the first
> thing that has ever cleaned that spotty shower door. If yours is
> plastic, it works just as well as glass. It's a miracle! Then try it
> on your stove top ... Viola! It's now shinier than it's ever been.
> You'll be amazed.
