Looking for products to help with my brushed motors I found this
https://www.tamiya.com/english/products/53486/index.html
★Clean up your motor commutators with these brushes - around 2 or 3 minutes with battery pack connected will freshen up brushed motor performance. ★Contains two cleaning brushes.
Does anyone have experience with these? I'm not sure how these would work more than once.

From what I read, a comm stick works better.

Does anyone still make comm sticks? I’ve only seen them for high prices with shipping included. These seem to be about 12$ shipped.
Is a fiberglass pen about the same as a com stick?

I never liked the fiberglass comm sticks as I felt they were too harsh. The red blue and green sticks were much better in my opinion.
I was old school - when old school wasn't cool !

All of my comm sticks are made from a flexible material, similar to a hard eraser.
The Trinity comm pen was just a fiberglass pen. The same generic type is still available on Amazon.
