I stay away from WD-40 except under a car hood or to get sticker glue off of something. It has a tendency to turn into gummy crud after a while. My dad lubricated a pistol with it once, and 6 months later the slide wouldn't hardly move.

I prefer silicone or teflon-based lubricants for electronics and small machinery.

It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.
