So i'm just starting to get into cue collecting. Mainly i'm building my collection of McDermott's. Since most of mine are well used (sadly sometimes abused) players that I have aquired, I want to try to clean them up as much as I can. For a few I do plan to send them in for the refinishing service that McDermott offers.
My question is about what I can do or use to better clean the cues. I know there are alot of threads on this topic, especially on cleaning shafts. I havent seen as many on what to do to 'polish' the finish on the butts however. Is there a good type of pad or chemical to use to do this? Also are there any fairly inexpensive 'lathe-type' devices one could buy or build to make the results come out better?
I chose this sub-forum as I figured there may be some standard practices that some people use to get your collections ready for picture day!
