Gents,
For refurbishing and the first, rough cleaning my favourite bristle pipe cleaners are the Ashton ones , but I do not seem able to order them from the UK anymore .
So I ordered 200 Carey's Bristle Scrubbing Cleaners and man they are thorny indeed.
The metal thread is metal thorned and they almost tear up my skin ! Could they be too abbrasive for the stems, briar ets. ?
Any thoughts , experiences ? Please share and/or help me where to procure the Ashton ones.
Cheers !

Those are just dills bristled. They are fucking garbage.

the bristle is like brass or copper and it fucking sticks your fingers like cacti.
