2 Stars the sqeegee fell apart in my hand!!!
I got my set on Tuesday around 10:00 A.M. and by 7:00 that night the rabbit’s foot on the squeegee was falling apart in my hand and the first rubber disc came off and got stuck in the middle of my barrel. Just as previous reviewers say the foot is just to big, when i put it in my barrel i had to wrap it around my hand and pull very hard. The only reason i didn’t score this with a one was the swab it is well made and does its job.
2 Stars wow
I got this new set hoping for a perfectly clean barrel after every play. Soon after i recieved it i realized the “rabbit’s foot” didnt fit in my barrel and it angered me incredibly bad. I trimmed the stupid cotton off for about twenty minutes, leaving a mess of dust and fabric in the air, and a lot of residue in my barrel. The cotton swab works very well though, and overall the squeege does remove the leftover paint. BOTTOM LINE: DO NOT PURCHASE THIS KIT!!!!
1 Stars Substandard
I got this set Monday night. Played a little paintball on Tuesday and was excited about using my new cleaning set. The swab is pretty good. I just wish the fluffy stuff were a little thicker maybe. The squeegee, on the other hand, was a total failure. First of all, the cotton swab, or “rabbit’s foot,” at the end of the cord was just way too thick to go into my barrel. I thought that pruning the foot to make it smaller would do the trick. This was not an easy thing to do since the cotton is very sturdy. After a while of pruning the foot I decided it was time to try it out. I ran one end of the squeegee through the barrel, didn’t even pull that hard when the cotton foot came flying off along with the rubber disks and spacers on the cord. I called the manufacturer and they said they discontinued that product two years ago, but they would send me the current one they have or one of better quality.
Bottom line, get something other than this.
5 Stars goog squeegee
I’d recommend that any paintballer keep one of these two squeegees on your person at all times when in the field. If you chop or break paint, these will clean your barrel out in no time.
4 Stars An essential set
Barrel swabs are the single-most used part of my paintball tool kit. The pull-through is very well made and is ideal for off-field cleaning, and the straight swab is good for on-the-fly cleaning. I would have liked to see the swab use a more sturdy material - the soft, fluffy stuff is nice but wears quickly. I would have rather seen the cotton that they use on the squeegee on the swab.
