I'm wondering how many times you use/clean your piston launchers?
I usually bring three with me to compete with, because they soot up and don't slide well after a launch. In between events I take them apart knock out the soot and sand the piston and tube some.
While getting rockets ready this morning for a competition in two weeks, I had the idea to sprinkle some baby powder in the tubes which seems to have a lubricating affect on the piston. will this work in the long run or will the powder make it worst?
