Duct Tape & WD-40 Hats

Two products, one repair philosophy. Duct tape was first used to seal ammunition cases in World War II; in 1943 Vesta Stoudt, an ammunition-box worker and mother of two sailors, wrote to President Roosevelt, and her letter ended up with Johnson & Johnson's Industrial Tape Corp. WD-40 stands for Water Displacement, 40th formula, because it took 40 attempts; it began in 1953 as a corrosion protector for missile covers. What joins them is a rule older than most internet memes: if it moves and it shouldn't, use duct tape, and if it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. Woodworking and Mopar forums both repeat it, and the "Does It Move? Should It? All Good" flowchart already sells on hats at TeePublic. These hats are for the dad, the do-it-yourselfer, and anyone whose temporary fix is now five years old. Two badges name the tools. The sentence designs run from the flowchart in full to a campground saying (if it sticks, it's fixed), the claim that you haven't used enough tape, a label that lists misplaced confidence as an ingredient, and a temporary fix that lasts thirty years. Two lines get a second colorway. Every design is custom embroidered on an unstructured dad hat. Choose one for yourself, or for whoever owns more rolls of tape than tools.
