Every handyman knows WD-40 is a go-to for lubricating and loosening rusted parts. But did you know it’s also a powerful glass cleaner? This unexpected use, highlighted by TikTok creator Gator (@jmg8tor), has gone viral, racking up over 516,000 views in just one day.

How to Use WD-40 for Sparkling Windows

In his viral video, Gator shares that WD-40 is excellent for cleaning any kind of glass surface—from shower doors to car windows. “It’ll clean your glass, shower glass, automobile glass, house windows, mirrors—any kind of glass,” he says, emphasizing that a small amount does the trick.

Pro tip: Don’t go overboard! As Gator puts it, “A little bit goes a long way.” Spray a small amount, wipe with one side of a rag, then flip to the other side, and finally, use a paper towel or another rag to buff it.

Using this method leaves surfaces not only spotless but also makes them less prone to dirt. “Dirt sticks to it less, so it’s easier to clean the next time,” Gator explains. And if you’re worried about the smell, he assures, “It’s not going to make everything smell like WD-40.”

Is It Safe for All Glass?

While WD-40 works wonders, there are some cautions. HouseDigest suggests using WD-40 carefully on tinted or coated windows, as it could affect them over time. Avoid using it on car windshields too, as it might impact visibility.

Other Unexpected Uses for WD-40

According to Family Handyman, WD-40 has a range of surprising uses, from removing carpet stains and preventing wasps from nesting to waterproofing shoes and even removing chewing gum from hair!

Viewers’ Reactions

Comments flooded in, with questions like, “How about the interior glass?” Gator warned against using it on tinted surfaces, highlighting the importance of reading labels.

One viewer joked, “Does it work on Windows 10?” while another simply celebrated, “I love the smell of WD-40. Smells like…VICTORY!!”

The creator continues to inspire with his unexpected hacks, proving WD-40 is much more than just a lubricant
