Spraying Gold Crown Skirts

R
Just finishing a large spraying project and plan to do my GC skirts next. When I looked at primers I found that there are 7 or 8 types of plastics out there and I am told that the choice of primer depends on the type of plastic so does anyone know the specific type of plastic the skirts were molded from? Or, alternatively, maybe recommend a primer that you have used on the skirts? I would prefer using my spray guns to rattle cans. Either way can be costly as I found out at the automotive paint store thinking a primer for plastic bumpers.

How to stop wood shaft warping.

Why not buy shafts that have been properly made.

Go with CF shafts.

My shafts were finished at least 20 years after acquired as square lumber.
That makes my shaft wood around 40 years old.
They're still perfectly straight.

Don't do anything special other than keeping my cues out of temp extremes.
Mostly worried about heat.

it could take 100 years to warp. Time is irrelevant here. I was just thinking of preventative measures. I would guess that if you had a a good cue you wouldn't need a case either.

How to clean wood shaft after every use?

Why clean your shaft at all?
Paper towel up and down the shaft and then over tip and then back in the case.
What are you doing to your shaft that you need to clean it?

This is my approach too, except i use micro fibre cloth, maybe twice a week. I'm always playing.
like philly said, unless your getting something on the shaft, why would you need to clean them that much? I know some players, don't like the blue staining. I always found the more you play, the smoother they get. Especially new shafts, they will stay slick and for ages, even though, that chalk gets in to the wood, pretty quick.
