Does aggressive brushing polish holds faster?

Think about it, constant abrasion of any sort should polish something. So if your brushing hard on a tiny crimp after every burn shouldn't that make the crimp smoother faster?

Go polish your knob instead.
I think it would depend on the rock. Some is so hard that you could never polish it, some is so soft that it will ablate before polishing, and some you will wax like Ralph Macchio.

fucking DUH. "don't be brushin my sandstone edges with your shitty hard ass brush. you're not gonna send it anyway, so sit the fuck down." at least that's what I want to say to some people some of the time. Granite? Brush away my man, you ain't gonna polish that any faster than a glacier, and we do like when those shitty slopers actually stick.

climbing shoes are my weapon of choice for hold polishing. climbing dogmatics the other day felt like a day at the skating rink.

Some of those are only problems if you're weak. Are you weak?

porchie, your lack of experience with limestones of the world makes your opinion utterly invalid
for the record.. the good rock out here is a sandy limestone mix, so the holds have texture and don't get polished.
only like pure sandstone? uhh yeah we got that.. it's fucking everywhere
