This WD-40 collection covers distinct workshop jobs rather than one product for every task. The stocked range includes Multi-Use Product in aerosol and bulk formats, Electrical Contact Cleaner, Rust Release Penetrant, Industrial Strength Degreaser, lithium grease, silicone lubricant and an applicator spray. Choosing the right formula matters, particularly around motorcycle brakes, tyres, electrical parts, paint and plastics.
Match the product to the job
WD-40 Multi-Use Product is intended for moisture displacement, freeing and lubricating moving mechanisms, cleaning residues and helping protect metal from corrosion. The 450ml aerosol suits direct application, while the 5-litre format is intended for higher-volume use. Check whether a separate applicator is needed and keep bulk product in a correctly labelled container.
Specialist products solve narrower problems. Rust Release Penetrant is for corroded or seized components before disassembly. Industrial Strength Degreaser removes oil, grease and workshop grime. Electrical Contact Cleaner is designed for electrical and electronic equipment where a fast-drying cleaner is required. Lithium grease and silicone lubricant should be selected according to the material, movement and loading described on the can.
Products in this WD-40 range

- Industrial Strength Degreaser: a solvent-based cleaner for oil, grease, dirt and grime on suitable surfaces.
- Lithium grease: a heavier lubricant for compatible metal mechanisms where the product instructions specify grease.
- Silicone lubricant: a specialist lubricant for suitable metal, rubber and plastic applications.
- Applicator spray: check the listing to understand the container, capacity and intended product pairing.
Using workshop chemicals carefully
Start by reading the label and safety information. Work in a ventilated area, keep aerosols away from heat and ignition sources, and wear the recommended protective equipment. Clean only a cool motorcycle. Mask nearby paint, plastics and rubber if the product data does not confirm compatibility, and test an inconspicuous area first.
Use the smallest practical quantity and control overspray with a cloth or applicator. A penetrant may help free a fastener, but it does not correct damaged threads or replace the specified lubricant during reassembly. A degreaser removes contamination, but parts may need drying and the correct protective finish afterwards.
For drive chains, follow the motorcycle and chain manufacturers' cleaning and lubrication instructions. General maintenance sprays should not automatically be treated as substitutes for a dedicated chain cleaner or lubricant.
Why buy WD-40 from Moto Central?
Moto Central keeps the general-purpose, specialist and bulk options together, making it easier to compare the job each product is intended to do. The current selection is focused on workshop maintenance rather than the wider WD-40 bicycle range. For alternatives and complementary care products, browse motorcycle cleaning products and motorcycle accessories.
Customer questions
Is WD-40 Multi-Use Product the same as Contact Cleaner?
No. They are different formulations for different tasks. Use Electrical Contact Cleaner only as directed on compatible, isolated equipment.
Can I spray these products near motorcycle brakes or tyres?
No. Prevent any lubricant, penetrant, silicone or general-purpose spray from reaching friction surfaces. Contaminated brake components may require replacement rather than simple cleaning.
Which product should I use on a seized bolt?
Rust Release Penetrant is the relevant stocked product. Allow it to work as directed, use the correct tool and stop if the fastener or surrounding part is being damaged.
Are the aerosol and 5-litre products used in the same way?
Not necessarily. Check the exact product label, application method and any required applicator before use.
