This product has the “most boring” consumer-facing brand name in the history and it’s still a global icon! WD-40 Two alphabets and a number that looks like a warehouse label, when put together. In 1953, WD-40 was created to solve a specific problem, protecting rocket, missile and aerospace components from #corrosion. The name literally means “Water Displacement, 40th formula” because it took 39 failed #experiments to get it right. But it ended up being a hit product across multiple industries and households because each spray loosened and stopped rust in seconds. It sells across 170 countries. WD-40 is proof that when a #product consistently overdelivers, it absorbs other marketing weaknesses. Bad name? Fine. Boring packaging? Doesn’t matter. It will work perfectly for what it promises on! 🙌 P.S. used this product on some of my garden furniture and it was miraculous. And that’s what got me intrigued WD-40 Company Pidilite Industries Limited
