To smooth and polish your cue shafts, simply rub the Q Wiz up and down the shaft using long, light strokes. Use the unmarked brown side to smooth the shaft and the tan logo side to polish it. Always wipe down your cue shafts after use to remove any chalk dust and body oils. You can use the q-wiz as often as your like to maintain the new super smooth finish without fear of damaging your cue shaft or reducing its diameter.
