I think we had a little can of that too, mostly for the sewing machine but I remember it getting used a lot for other random little things too. And now I can't remember what any of them were, or how we live without it now. The squeaky hinges and stuff we squirt with WD40 now, but seems like there were other things than that then...
Oh and it did get used for the guns, too. I grew up (on a farm) with a rifle and shotgun behind the back door, and a rifle behind the front one. They were always there leaning in the corner and we knew not to ever touch them and never did.
