Rant: Old timer told me to skip the vacuum and just wire brush the flue

Called me lazy for dragging my HEPA vac up 3 flights of stairs, so I tried his way on a job last Tuesday - ended up with soot all over the customer's white sofa and had to pay $200 for cleaning. Has anyone else gotten burned by that old-school "just brush it down" advice?

Screwed yourself with that old head advice lol. Always trust the HEPA vac over some boomer hack.

Wait, you actually rate the HEPA vac over the old-school brush method?
