Yes, avoid using WD40 as anything but a cleaning

WD-40 is not a cleaning agent either. It's a water displacer, and can
remove some other kinds of residue, but it then leaves behind its own
residue. You need to use some other solvent AFTER you use WD-40 for it's
intended purpose, and THEN use a real lubricant.
I've seldom (perhaps never) seen any situation in computer repair or
restoration where WD-40 was an appropriate thing to use.
