There are several,Blue Job, Blue Away, for 2 of them there is another that comes with a buffer for your drill but can't remember the name off the top of my head.

I have used the BlueAway and it works pretty well. Not as nice as Roadworthy's. Takes a bit of time and elbow grease as well. I tried a buffer but did not seem to work as well as by hand but maybe using the wrong tool.

Blue Job and lots and lots of elbow grease...

Next time I'm shelling out the extra bucks and letting my tools do the work your results look better than mine...

I agree I'll spend the extra cash for the better results.

For the record, I just looked at the box, it is BLUE BUSTER, not blue job, that comes with the attachment. I did say both in different posts, sorry

Roadworthy, how bad were your pipes before you cleaned them? I just ordered blue buster to try and was just wondering how good they will work on mine.
Thanks
