Switched from wire brushes to nylon rotary brushes on my drill last year

Took me 15 years of scrubbing flues by hand to finally try those nylon rotary brushes you attach to a drill - cleaned a 12-foot section in 10 minutes flat that used to take me 45 minutes of elbow grease. Has anyone else made the switch and noticed how much less soot gets kicked back in your face?

My buddy swore by them for his fireplace and now I get it.

Tape a shop vac right at the flue opening, keeps that soot cloud off your face.
