Does Clarances impeller kit realy work as designed? I don't think so

In theory it should work.  I don't undrstand how it realy works. Snow blower housings are NOT perfictly round. Only the low spot  (spot with the closest distance with housing )will get wiped. All impeller blades will be worn to this low spot during the brake in period.  So in reality it is never a clean swipe , Only the low spot gets wiped clean. The other areas will still have a gap. How big a gap will depend on the out of roundness of your housing. This area the impeller scrapes clean also scraps off your paint . Your housing will then rust away.   Then what.   Buy another  housing or

BLOWER !!   I believe Hondas pump so good because there housings are rounder and there impeller clearances are tighter from the design of the unit.
