Renaissance. I used Q-Silk for many years, but Renaissance is better, but only like 9.9 to 9.0. I live in the land of humidity and mosquitoes. I will only listen to folks from NOLA/Louisiana and Houston on these subjects. Everyone else, sit down. Clean, well-finished, shafts are critically important to my game. Anyone who has ever been down here and played in a well attended pool tournament during which the facility's A/C unit has lost, or is losing, the battle knows whereof I speak. So . . . when I found Q-Silk, I considered it a gift from God, borne to earth in the hands of seraphs from on high, and now I have found Renaissance.
Some of you say "glove", but I disagree and will spare you a fully descriptive reply in favor of a single question: How do you truly feel about sex while wearing a condom? Its about the same thing to me -- "Yeah, okay, but I'd rather not."
I have never experienced any build-up or residue with Renaissance. In fact, if I were pressed to find any fault, I would say it does not last long enough. But, all things considered, I can live with cleaning and polishing my cue every month, or so.
If I ran Renaissance, we would offer it in single use packs with counter top displays for pool hall sales. The more folks who tried it, the more they could sell. I can only conclude they don't need any more business.
