Seal a CF Shaft

[dendweller]

Cost......Just wear a glove and save $400 + to try em out.
After I've used this it will be MUCH easier to compare it to the supposed better ones is my intent.
This for sure creates more spin than maple when cueing at the same speed at my maple shafts.

Yah gotta crawl before yah walk.
When your a new driver at 16, do you purchase a new high end car, or do you prefer to think different.

Spend 20K or go for the 50K car and higher insurance/tax/etc?

Another way to try stuff is use one of the sites that gives you 30 days, you can chalk it and play with it. If you don't modify it or mess it up, you can return it.

makes sense, thought you were in for the long run when you said you bought 2

More this reasoning.
Tournament......I drive/pay/enter/play tip comes off, then what do I shoot with, it's why in my prime/pro years, I always had three shafts.

Not that I know of. I know that they reserve the right to not allow anyone that abuses that policy to use it anymore. Can't say I blame them.

I spent an afternoon with a revo it was an eye opener.
The experts say the difference in spin imparted is minimal but my experience was the same as yours. Seemed way different.

they really shouldn't ship needing that much cleaning that wiping it down good doesn't do it.

Some cars have carbon fiber door handles. Could you imaging getting carbon fiber dust on your hands openning the door to your car? Would people say, it's not a big deal, you got a good price on that car.

I'd do a lot of cleaning to get that car at 2/3 off...

When i clean mine now hardly any black shows. I've heard that RainX is really good on cf shafts as a sealer. I don't see the need based on my exp.

I don't think carbon fiber can be sealed in the way wood can.

yeah, not really a sealer but more of a slick coating. Its mostly silicone afaik.

I don't know about the silicon part of it but it lasts a couple of months, keeps the shafts clean and is easily cleaned with alcohol wipes, and it does make the shafts a little slicker, I know they use it to preserve paintings, clean fine jewelry , a small can will last a looong time.

i looked at the data sheet. its almost all silicone compounds. i'm gonna buy one of the $2 RX wipes and try it. heard good things.

long as I could clean it once and be done with it. If it was a regular thing, I think I'd get a different car, or cover the door handles with duct tape.

There is no indication there is continued shedding of any residue after initial and thorough cleaning.
