Because it is an aerosol spray. When sprayed, the product forms a fine mist that can ignite easily if it comes into contact with a flame or spark. Tests show that: The spray can ignite from a long distance. It contains enough energy to burn quickly once ignited for safety reasons, regulations require products with these properties to be labelled as “extremely flammable aerosols”, even if the liquid itself is not highly flammable when not sprayed. That’s why it must be kept away from heat, sparks, and open flames.

Is it suitable for electrical components?

Yes — but only when the power is turned off. The product does not conduct electricity and can safely be used around electrical components once they are disconnected from power. For safety reasons, never spray it on live or powered?on electrical equipment.

Is it safe on plastic, rubber?

The product is safe to use on most plastics and rubber materials. Some sensitive plastics, such as polycarbonate or polystyrene, may react if the product is left on the surface for a long time. Certain rubbers may also swell with prolonged contact. To be safe, we recommend testing the product on a small area first and avoiding extended contact on sensitive materials.

Is it safe to use indoor?

Yes, the product can be used indoors. It carries the EU Ecolabel, which means it meets strict environmental criteria and contains only limited amounts of hazardous substances. When using it indoors, make sure the area is well ventilated and keep it away from open flames, as the aerosol is flammable.

What is “bio”? What does 85% bio based mean? What’s it made of?

When we say “bio”, we don’t mean organic farming. In this case, “bio” means bio-based. That means the product is made mostly from renewable natural sources, like plants or other natural materials, instead of being made entirely from fossil fuels like oil. If a product is 85% bio-based, it means that most of the material comes from renewable sources, with a small part still coming from conventional materials. This definition follows official EU rules used for eco-labelled products.

Does "bio-based“ mean that the formula is biodegradable?

Does bio-based mean biodegradable? Not always — but for this product, yes. More than 95% of its ingredients break down quickly in the environment. It is EU Ecolabel certified, which means it meets very strict environmental standards. So while “bio-based” alone doesn’t always mean biodegradable, this product is designed to be both — renewable and environmentally responsible.

Is it non-conductive?

Yes. The product is non-conductive, which means it does not conduct electricity. It has insulating properties and has been tested to safely withstand high electrical voltage. This makes it suitable for use in applications where electrical safety is important.

Can I use it in high-temperature applications like engines?

No. This product is not made for engines or very high-temperature parts. It’s intended for general maintenance and everyday lubrication, not for engine internals or parts that get extremely hot. Using it in engines could reduce performance or cause damage. For engines, always use a lubricant specifically designed and approved for high temperatures.

What’s Ecolabel? What's so special?

When using WD-40 Specialist Bike Degreaser on my bike chain, should I rinse with water afterwards?

With the WD-40 Specialist® Bike Degreaser it is really up to how dirty the components are. The formula itself is fast evaporating and leaves no visible residue. So if it's not too dirty then just spray liberally and use a cloth to collect the dirty liquid, there is no need to use water. If the chain is severely dirty and greasy then it is a very good idea to rinse with water to help ensure that all of the dirty liquid is removed. In some cases you may need to reapply the degreaser to remove all of the previous dirt and greasy grime. Always remember that the WD-40 Specialist Bike Degreaser leaves no residue and therefore is not a corrosion inhibitor. To protect the chain, relubricate with a chain lube or apply a corrosion inhibitor like WD-40® Multi-Use-Product for storage.

What can I use on the moving parts, catches, locks on my doors and windows?

Using WD-40 Multi-Use Product as a penetrant to release stuck window hinges and to displace water after washing is a great use of our product. For light lubrication especially of locks and catches, you can use WD-40 Multi-Use Product, but for the more specialist user we suggest applying the following after MUP. For light hinges and rails use WD-40 Specialist Silicone (or Specialist Dry PTFE) as it is great at eliminating sticking and binding. Make sure to wipe up any over spray though as we don't want it getting onto any curtains. For heavier windows and ratchet systems use WD-40 Specialist White Lithium Grease The above two options (Silicone and WLG) would be more than sufficient for any window lubrication and corrosion protection. If you know that a particular window rail, hinge or ratchet will be subject to extreme conditions and are worried about corrosion and seizing then Specialist Spray Grease with the added WD-40 formula would be the one to use for corrosion protection but these situations are unlikely to occur. If you are spraying near a painted surface, be mindful that WD-40® Multi-Use Product may cause stains. We also advise you to contact the manufacturer of the door or windows to ensure using products on them doesn't affect your warranty! Just remember, you should make sure to clean out all the grime to give our greases a fair chance to work and wipe off any excess MUP before applying our greases. Small amounts of MUP left won't affect the performance of our greases. The important thing is to apply our greases to a clean surface with no grime or older grease.
