Four days? What took you so long Curt? I was getting concerned. :lol:

My mother heard that WD-40 was also good for arthritic joints. She tried it a couple of times. All she got was oily knees... Gotta get around to trying it on records someday.

I had clients who swore it worked for arthritis - I never tried it... But it does work on records and original paint on black horns.
