[QUOTE="Norvic, post: 313638, member: 4596"] Interesting not only for the GPXs, scrubbing the coil also shorten the life of coils. When you look inside a coil it easy to understand, once the filling has been compressed it doesn`t return to shape completely, then the wire coils are no longer completely fixed thus you hardly notice it but coils start to degrade the moment you use them, a little at a time until you suddenly wonder what all the extra noise is. It is a trade off but I`ve learnt to keep my coil close but never scrubbing for life of the coil and in hot ground to lessen the effect of mineralisation. [/QUOTE]
