Joint cover

A lubrication cover, for a joint such as a hinge or other similar device, includes a body defining a cavity and at least one aperture. The body is made from a stretchable material and is sized to allow the cavity to fit snuggly around the hinge. The body preferably includes at least one tab to facilitate the placement of the cover around the hinge. In practice, a user places the cover around the hinge. Next, the user introduces a lubricant into the cavity through the aperture. The cover prevents the lubricant from being applied to an area other than on the joint itself, thereby eliminating the creation of a mess and damaging other objects. If left in place, the cover also ensures that the lubricant will be in close proximity with the hinge, and protects the hinge from foreign material such as dirt, water, and the like.
