Pro tip: I did not trust the plastic sheet on my flue brush, then a job in Albany proved me wrong

I always thought those clear plastic sleeves you slide over the brush were just a gimmick to sell more gear, so I kept using a trash bag and tape for years. Then a sweep named Ray in Albany showed me his setup on a 30 foot liner job, and the sleeve caught every bit of soot instead of dumping it on the customer's white carpet. That one job alone kept me from a $200 cleaning bill. Anyone else using these, or do you have a better way to keep the mess off the floor?
