    Purchased a shaft burnisher, too rough?

    Looking forward to applying my wood wax to my shaft to get that smooth surface back. Purchased a shaft burnisher to prep for the wax. Was using a scotch pad before to clean my shaft. The burnisher seems more abrasive than the scotch pad, am I worried for nothing?
