Information

Please note the item you are buying here is the original Harry Robson Easy Roughing Stick not the Vanishing Inc product which is a different item.

Harry Robson is now manufacturing his own roughing sticks. An excellent utility tool that is coveted by card professionals. This is the simple and perfect way to rough your own cards!

No more messy sprays - no more liquids - simply rub cards with the roughing stick and you are good to go!

HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF CARDS CAN BE ROUGHED!

There is enough supplied for hundreds of cards. Comes with detailed instructions, and illustrations that teach you how to apply it. NOTE: PRODUCT SIZE AND SHAPE SUBJECT TO CHANGE BUT VOLUME IS THE SAME.

The item you get looks a bit like a pencil rubber, it normally takes one quick pass of the stick on a card to rough it so thats less than a second and there is no drying time.

How long it will last will depend on how mad you go with it, if you rubbed a pencil rubber too much it will wear away quickly and leave a mark if you push too hard.

Be very light and gentle and practice with old cards as at first you will nearly always apply too much pressure.

I have done a deck to test this and my stick has a small chamfer on it's edge just like a rubber would wear.

I suspect it will last for at least 100 decks depending on how you use it which is far cheaper, quicker and easier than spray (not to mention toxic fumes and overspray & mess).

Our Review and Rating

This is so easy to use, you can rough a whole deck in no time with just one pass of the stick on each card, just wipe the stick like a rubber down the face or back of the card to be roughed.

It does leave a slight white mark on the card just so you know but I have never had anyone point it out, apply with light pressure to start with until you get a feel for how hard to rub the card.

This method of roughing is also much quicker and easier than spray, plus you can touch a card up anytime you like in seconds if you need to.

This will also last a very long time, I suspect most will lose the stick before it runs out if used for your own use!

Very recommended everyone should own one of these.
