You can clean it with different things you no Matt.

[mattyuk]

dont use sand paper on your cue or ferrule just use some fine grade wire wool thats all you need sandpaper will slowly destroy your cue

[-Matty-]

NO DON'T USE SANDPAPER. This bloke at my snooker club used sandpaper on somebodies cue once and it was completely destroyed and the grain was exposed.

[mattyuk]

wire wool, where the hell can i buy that?

[ADR147]

Local Diy Shop Will Have It 0000 Grade

[joe2311]

i find that 1600 grit wet & dry sand paper is better that wire wool .

[ADR147]

it can take the top off the wood though, but will work fine if you are carefull

[joe2311]

yes probably if you use it alot but wire wool will to. 1600 grit wet & dry give a far better finish though or get some 2000 grit .

[-Matty-]

Like ADR said it depends on how much you use it really and whether or not your careful using it.

[joe2311]

wire wool will take more of your shaft than 2000 grit wet n dry give it a try and see you can rub the cue for a while with 2000 before it starts taking wood off if it can finish a cars paint job like glass it wont scatch your cue.

Im very happy with the cue, the cue action is getting better and better, got a few 40's in. and when you say about the sandpaper taking the shaft away, I mean..Im using it for ferrule, I think ill just buy the 1600 tomorrow.
