I haven't used mine yet, but it didn't start well. When I opened the tube, everything fell out. I don't know whether it had never been assembled or just came apart during shipping. Neither one is good. While I understand it is just a tool and doesn't have to be pristine, the handle looked like it had been rough formed by someone with greasy hands. The handle was neither smooth nor clean. No big deal maybe, but not what I expected.

It does well what it is designed for- ie- cleaning the compound out and fluffing up the new/old wheels.

This is a well made product and essential if you frequently need to Tripoli Buff brass. Product was packaged nicely and shipment was prompt. Will be ordering again.

Exactly what you need for cleaning and balancing your buffing wheels.

A useful tool.
