    Works for me.
    When I was in Pathalogical Farrier's School (Horseshoeing) my Instructor told us that the formula for DMSO was almost the same as WD-40 and that's why some folks got relief of their Arthritis by using it. Don't know but that's what he said and he was very smart and talented.

    I remember well DMSO.. I think all the farmboys knew of it's usefulness at easing arthritic joints. My uncle had a horse that he would have stand with his forelegs in a bucket of a DMSO solution when he had troubles walking.

    It was a floor cleaner if I remember right?? Very low specific gravity too.. that's all I remember tho...

    I KNOW that WD-40 will wash away any protective layer of lubricant. I won't let it in my shop and my folks make sure to get me a can each Xmas! I must have 6 or 8 of them here at the house, I use it on the snowblower after each use, that way the chute doesn't freeze in place..
