I found a squeaky door so I got the oil and fixed it… Then did every door I could before my wife caught me.

Am I alone here? It’s so satisfying to just glide open!

Edit: She followed up with: “you’re enjoying yourself too much”
Damn straight I am. It’s the little things you have to enjoy!

    Wd40 is a solvent.
    It happens to lubricate and protect from water for a short time. But if you use it as a lube, you are gonna have a bad time.

    Use wd40 to loosen something up, clean off old grease/oil/gunk, protect short term from flash rust etc.
    Then actually wipe it down and lubricate it with a proper lube
