WD40 has a nice, manly scent.  The only thing that smells better is freshly
made peanut butter cookies 8-)

 With WD-40 ?

  From another list:  " On black horns, I touch up scratches with a Sharpie 
marker and then clean the horn with WD 40. On painted or flowered horns, it 
cleans and deepens the colors. Neither kerosene or WD 40 will harm painted 
or nickel finished parts. WD 40 also restores and cleans 78 records and 
Amberol cylinders. Some people will disagree with that, but take a dirty, 
scratchy 78 record and try it - it will improve the sound and make it look 
better - and absolutely NO damage to the record - spray it on and wipe it 
off "

 Just the smell of WD40 would keep me from even trying it ....
