[QUOTE="Mr Magoo, post: 239360, member: 3008"] I certainly don't think of it as user friendly. I've had mine for a couple of years now and I have only recently got it to perform as the maker said it would. When you first use it, it will produce a black gunk and scratch. Scrub it under the tap. Repeat again and again. Once the gunk stops the scratching seems to stop. It's early days but mine seems to be behaving. Using the marker pen to make sure it's aligned to the lap helps with an even polish. Although I reversed lap direction the other day and the scratches immediately returned. Both my CeO and ZrO are now in stick form. [/QUOTE]
