WD-40 began from a search for a rust preventative solvent and
> degreaser to protect missile parts. WD-40 was created in 1953 by three
> technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. It's name comes
> from the project that was to find a "water displacement" compound. They
> were successful with the fortieth formulation, thus WD-40.
>
> The Corvair Company bought it in bulk to protect their Atlas missile
> parts. The workers were so pleased with the product, they began
> smuggling (also known as "shrinkage" or "stealing") it out to use at
> home. The executives decided there might be a consumer market for it
> and put it in aerosol cans. The rest, as they say, is history.

> It is a carefully guarded recipe known only to four people. Only one
