3M stone-chip is the very best I've ever used, can be hard to get though.
Some people are like Slinkies - they serve no useful purpose, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them downstairs.

Hello

I never tell people to buy top brand stuff on principle, but 3M stone chip is very good. The aerosol stuff is the best you can get in my experience. If you are using a shutzgun then the u-pol is pretty good. and most of the rest is well up to the job. A decent supplier wont bother with crap gear as it is not good for business.

Check the breather of the shutzgun is not blocked or risk having explode and getting a face-full of the stuff.
