I have two Revo shafts and they do leave black marks on my cloth next to the rails. I wipe the shafts often with an alcohol solution but it still happens. Anyone else notice this?
Carbon as in lead pencil? With the finish they have this doesn't surprise me.I have two Revo shafts and they do leave black marks on my cloth next to the rails. I wipe the shafts often with an alcohol solution but it still happens. Anyone else notice this?

Nothing to do with Revo, they build a fantastic product that does not do as described.
Who redid the finish on top of yours rails? Most likely the problem.

Many people want an ending to this one, one way or the other.
We need a simple test.
Take a white rag and wipe the shaft, any color?
Now take the same rag and wipe the top of the rails, any color?
IF NONE?
Next step.
Repeat above but this time use the same alcohol wipes you always use, this will determine whether the alcohol is activating either 1; the carbon or 2; the material on top of the rails.
Once you complete these four simple tasks, you will have at a minimum, one thing that leaves a mark.
My belief? You bought Mark Gregory rails but that is NOT a Mark Gregory finish, he does top notch work and has the proper finish that will not rub off. This can be cured, don't sweat it.
For the love of Pool, lets get to the bottom of this one, it's a great topic.
Thanks.
This all sounds good, but you aren't repeating the event that is causing the streak, if it is the shaft, which is a pool shot. Casual rubbing of a cloth on the shaft may not be enough. The friction between the shaft and the cloth on a quick pool shot (draw shot, break, whatever) could be generating heat and causing the transfer in the briefest of moments. Without that friction and heat, the surface of the shaft could be quite stable.
