What could be the damage? It was a good hearty spray all over my full suss.

Damn Muc-Off for making the tins so similar.

Prob not too much to worry about. Check it hasn't got into any bearings.

In my youth, I washed out a freewheel with WD40. Then I learned how to rebuild a freewheel and with proper greasing, it ran better than new.

Nope, but I have a mate* who once whilst entertaining a lady, grabbed the hair-gel instead of the KY. By mistake, he alleges.

I did the WD40-freehub thang in my youth too**. It really does clean them out, dunnit ๐Ÿ˜‰

* Deffo not me
** Deffo not a euphemism either

I've had a few close calls with pile cream and toothpaste, to be honest.

I spotted a dead cat on my commute this morning that i'm 100% confident can be attributed to your actions/mistake rentachimp.

Don't do it again. Think of the poor cats man, THE CATS!!!
