← Back to ResourcesProduct Tips:
- For a poly and wire set, start with a poly wafer and end with a poly wafer – this prevents the wire from wrapping around the shafts.
- Avoid sweeping with all wire – wire breaks more easily and wears down faster than a poly-wire mix.
- Poly is best for sweeping, while wire is ideal for scratching the road surface – think sponge vs. Brillo pad.
