Thread: Shotgun Bore Mop

So I'm going to experiment with this idea and get back to you guys. I think it will work as a poor man's buffer.

Maybe use a cut off cleaning rod to extend it past the drill a bit. Interesting idea, I'll be interested on how this works. I've got all the parts to try this as well

Great minds think alike...I'm doing that as we speak...

I've used a 10 gauge bore mop covered in polish on a cleaning rod to smooth out the bore on my single shot 12 gauge and that worked fine. If it spins in a stable manner it should work on a razor.

Watch the rotation and the edge. I would not recommend this, the long fibers have broken razor and bleeding written all over it.

If you want to do this at least pick up a flex shaft, you can pick one up for about 10 bucks and it will at least give you infinitely more control.

Be very careful.

Good Idea bad reality. I attached an extension but centrifugal force made the mop wobble like a Hula dancer.. Oh well, I'll come up with something better next time.

Yep, keep after it, it's fun to tinker and come up with a better way.
