WD-40 Smart Straw® cans contain the same formula used and trusted by millions of people around the world, but also feature the permanently attached straw, which can be flipped down for a wide spray or flipped up to apply a pinpoint stream into hard-to-reach places.<P> The list of ways to use WD-40 also continues to improve. In fact, WD-40 Company has expanded its official list of more than 2,000 uses for the product on its new Web site, wd40.com. Many loyal fans regularly share their favorite uses online through the official WD-40 Fan Club, now more than 115,000 members strong.<P><P><P><P>A permanently attached straw that sprays two ways will make a 55-year-old product an even more useful and time-saving tool.<P><P> </td><td width="100" valign="top"><a href="http://www.napsnet.com/articles/59114.gif"><img src="http://www.napsnet.com/articles/59114.gif"></a><br><a href="http://www.napsnet.com/pub/59114.zip">Download high-resolution, print_quality graphic and MS Word document</a><HR><BR><b>Word Count: 227</td></tr></table>
