Another pint-sized cracker...
Another pint-sized cracker from tool firm Laser, it"s useful for applying to all the fiddly brackets and mechanisms that need to be freed up from time to time, from door handles and hinges, to wiper arms and battery terminals. However, it’s not much use if you want to work on heavy-duty car parts, such as suspension joints.
The kit has a toothpaste-style tube which screws into the bottom of the gun – you can buy refills from the company for ÷£4.50. The grease comes out in a controlled flow, and unlike on some similar products, it’s only applied when you press the tube. All you need to do is grip the metal gun between your finger and thumb like a pen to get a firm hold. It’s comfortable, too, as the shaft is finished with a rubber coating, and this also ensures the gun won’t slip out of your hand.
Of course, it’s not only car parts that need greasing; the gun really comes into its own all round the garage, whether you need to lubricate jacks or toolbox runners. And as application is so accurate, the Laser product is perfect for working with the fiddly components in remote control cars or models.
