put a little on a non flammable surface (like
concrete), just a small
amount (comparable to what you put on the fuser)... touch a match to it.
If it doesn't ignite, you should be good to go on the fuser. Matches burn
Thanks for the helpful info! Earlier this afternoon, I got through to
someone at WD40 (they now own 3-in-one), who had a good understanding
of the product, who told me that it was nothing to worry about, just to
expect more smoke for a while.
However, regardless of the flammability... its going
to smoke, and that's
neither going to smell good, or be very healthy. So you'll probably want
to break it down, clean it, and replace it with a high temp grease anyway.
Yes, that's what I should do. Tempting not to bother with all that,
but I should. From the old cars that I drive, I'm used to smells like
burning oil, so that doesn't bother me.
