Cue shaft talk

Wow I would be afraid to do that. 0000 steel wool is about the equivalent of 400 sandpaper. I can't really picture what would be happening when you do that that would make it smoother other than it's leaving a powdery residue which is why it feels better. In that case probably just use powder like the old days.

I don't know about the cue shaft but I own things that are made of carbon fiber and I couldn't imagine what it would do to them if I started rubbing them with 0000 steel wool. You would probably be better off just paste waxing the shaft and buffing it good. I hope some knowledgeable people chime in here on the proper care and maintenance of a CF shaft.
I found this on line that makes sense

Well I did it, and the shaft is fine. I had a little nick in the shaft up by the tip that was caused by a tip shaper. I buffed it out. It took a long long time to get it out, that's how unabrasive the steel wool is to these shafts. Probably wouldn't do it with my Pechauer Rogue, but with the rhino I didn't mind trying. Gives it a good feel!
