Anyone using Q Clean and Q Glide?

I had my shaft cleaned and sealed a free months back by my tip guy. These are the products he said he used. The shaft is still smooth and clean several months later. As far as ease of use, I have no idea as i have never used it myself.
 
I have and have used both products. They both work as advertised. I don't use them very often, but when I do they work to my satisfaction.

Likewise, I use the REVO now but when I had maple shafts they both do a great job.
 
I used both for years I wish I could find them but Mueller Sports
doesn't carry them and a web search came up empty.
Where do you guys get them ? I would love to keep using them.
I think they are great.
Thanks
 
For cleaning i use a MagicEraser with a little denatured alcohol. Takes dirt and bluing out big time.
 
I used it when I had some. The bottle I have is so small....maybe it comes in a bigger size but I haven't seen it yet.

I’ve been using this cue cleaning system since 1990. There are four components to this shaft cleaning process: Q Clean, Q Smooth, Q Slick and Q Glide. It’s simply the best shaft cleaning system I’ve found and I continue to use it to this day.

I use this system as well. Very happy with the results.

While I do have q glide in my case, I only use it in a dire emergency. When you play a long set or a tournament, the gliding effect gradually deteriorates and the shaft becomes sticky again quite fast. I prefer to clean and wax the shaft and then use a towel for maintainance. It's not perfect, but is a more stable, long term fix. For those hot and humid days, only a glove will give you perfect consistency. Just my opinion.

Also, I do play a lot with snooker style of cues (Snooker, Blackball, Chinese 8 ball), and when I use an Ash shaft, the process is completely different, consisting of oiling, buffing and then wiping off with a towel. When I use a maple shaft, I do the same as with a regular pool cue, but the problem doesn't seem quite as severe with this style of shaft and using an open bridge.

Who sells it?
 
I started using Cue Silk a couple years back. It comes in a 2oz. bottle. I ordered mine from Ozone Billiards for $14.95
It only takes a couple drops on a tissue. Makes the shaft nice and smooth. I still have my original bottle.
 
Damp paper towel works fine for me. If really dirty some alcohol and paper towel works.

I just burnish with a dry paper towel.
