Default Grease guns

My Grease Gun has no discernible pedigree. The guy I bought it from says that it came out of an original Cobra. (Read "Says").

My Farmer friend's story is far more credible as he could enumerate the other items in the "Accessory Kit" and he worked at the Ford Dealership from which the kit was acquired. (Read "Purloined", likely).

My grease gun is identical to his in every respect.

I asked him why he referred to the grease gun as a "grease plunger". He replied, "Not sure. That's what we all called them".

I'm going to 'practice' with the brush on some (any) loose, unprotected metal object. If I'm not completely happy with the results I have a Back-Up Plan. One of the CACC Cobra Club members knows a paint shop in Herndon, VA where one can take a can of liquid paint and they will pour the paint into a Spray Can and charge it with the required aerosol gas. He said the results he had were Perfect. Cost was about $20.00. That would be well worth it to get the best results.

Y'all have a really great day.
