BACKYARD

5

supereasy ways to maintain your backyard gear

Gear Hugger’s Multipurpose Lubricant can keep your backyard and garden tools functioning smoothly — sans the harmful chemicals found in traditional petroleum- based products. Here’s how!

1

Door and Gate Hinges After a cold and snowy (or wet!) winter your backyard gates, fences, and outdoor furniture may be noisier than ever. Just apply a few sprays of Gear Hugger Multipurpose Lubricant to the hinges to keep them opening and closing with ease.

2

Outdoor Furniture Maintenance Are your furniture, swing sets, and folding chairs a bit harder to push or move around than you remember? Spray Gear Hugger Lubricant on the wheels and moving parts. Gently move them back and forth to evenly distribute. Within seconds, you’ll be able to crank open that stuck outdoor umbrella.

3

Mower Blades

Apply a light coating of Gear Hugger Lubricant on all moving parts including wheels and base of blades (make sure mower is off and unplugged or battery is removed if it’s electric!) to achieve a cleaner cut and enhance performance.

4 BBQ Grills

Spray Gear Hugger’s multipurpose lubricant on the hinges to open and close the cover with ease, and degreaser right on the grill to remove excess buildup from last year’s grill sessions. It’s totally non-toxic and made of plants, so a-okay around food, kids, and even pets. (Full how-to on pg 21.)
