I've used Drano/Liquid Plumbr Foam to clean the bathroom sink drain, but that never cleans enough. There's always scum left over. I think I can clean it better if I follow up the Drano with a brush. So, I'm looking for a "pipe cleaner brush" (name?), but I can't find it anywhere online. I've searched the sites for Home Depot and Lowe's for:
- pipe brush
- pipe cleaner
- tube brush
but the search results don't show what I'm looking for.
The brush I need looks like the ones in this search, but I need longer ones that come in various widths (one at ~ 2" and another 1/4").
Where can I find this thing?

I wouldn't worry about the scum left over - what you really need to do is get rid of the BIG gunk that's catching the little gunk that eventually clogs your sink.
For clogged drains, a hand held auger is your tool of choice for cleaning stubborn clogs out of bathroom pipes.
