Working on a project car doesn’t just require elbow grease — it requires a lot of actual grease, too, whether it’s for lubricating joints and suspension bearings, preventing rust and corrosion on important car parts, maintaining drive shafts and brake systems, or lubricating hinges and latches in your hood, doors, and trunk release. You could use a manual grease gun, but this can take a lot of effort, especially if your grease starts to jam up. The Milwaukee M18 Cordless 2-Speed Grease Gun can do the work for you and save you a lot of time and energy.
The tool boasts an industry-leading 10,000 psi max operating pressure. In its hands-on review, Pro Tool Reviews notes that this “impressive” power is “about 2,000 – 3,000 psi above most other comparable models.” It also highlights the tool’s “convenient and appropriate” features, including an onboard LED light, lock-on/lock-off trigger, built-in plunger rod with markings that tell you how much remaining grease you have, and an extra-long hose that makes the tool easier to use.
One drawback to the product is that it’s pretty expensive compared to manual grease guns. But, if you’re willing to spend the money, you’ll certainly appreciate the time and frustration you save by automating one of the more laborious aspects of working on a project car. You can find Milwaukee’s M18 Cordless 2-Speed Grease Gun at Home Depot for $229 and from Amazon for $171.
