WD40 is water dispersing, GT85 is only a lubricant. Take all the bearings out, remove the shield/s and flush them through with WD40 or motor spray until all the water and dirt is gone. A final flush with motor spray, then dry them, then GT85 to lubricate - done!

Pretty sure GT85 is a water displacer also. I use this on my cars prior to racing to dispense water instead of WD40 because WD40 eats rubber seals in your shocks etc.
