kohler overflows

[wrench spinner]

I just installed a air bubbler tub for my folks, the overflow is a very thin slot, maybe 1/2" thick at most. how do you guys snake these? have you ever had to because there is no way my snake is going to get though the tub shoe i dont think? I dont need to snake it now just so when i have to i have an idea of how to address this

How do you think a 1/4" cable would do?

I just installed a Kohler tub with this waste and overflow, I was thinking the same thing.

I bet it is going to be a real PITA, but my 1/4" top snake cable will get it.

The 1/4" will be tight but it should get it i just wish it would have been bigger and the trim for it is going to be a bear to try to get those set screws out after a few years too!
