Cleaning the Grease Gun


A grease gun finds use in many applications around your home and in automobiles. The grease gun helps you spray grease onto the bearings and other moving parts to ensure that they move smoothly. This helps prevent damaged due to friction. 
Naturally, to keep your grease gun in top working condition, you must clean it regularly. This ensures that the grease flows out evenly and smoothly.

To clean the grease gun you can use old towels and gentle anti grease soap. You may also use a little water and mild dish washing soap or hand soap. As per the manual of the grease gun, remove the old cartridge of the gun, and wipe of the grease in the cartridge chamber using a cloth. 

Next, wipe of the excess grease from the nozzles and extension hoses that you might have attached to the grease gun. It is important to clean the debris, metal pieces, glass shards and all the old dried up grease from the grease gun
