I dont know If it is good or not but I seem to have a perfect clean table..Anyone knows if its harming in any way the felt??I use a cleaning roll for the cloths..In the first picture you see it before I start clean and then the used sheets...I use first the vacuum cleaner then I spray with the quick clean and lastly I use the clean roll...anyone uses another method for the cleaning of the felt?

Good idea in theory. The only down side I see at this time is the sticky paper pulling on the fibers of the cloth. I would assume its not the best for it, but I'm not a cloth expert.

I tried that on my table before. It left very small spots of adhesive on the felt. Little tiny white spots. Kind of like the little white spots we can see on your felt in the pic.

Here's an interesting blurb on Simonis 860 (which I have).

I've been using a lint roller frequently but it bothers me when I see how much of the cloth fibers get pulled up by the adhesive. (You can see this in the pictures.) Is this a bad thing or not? I'm not sure. It certainly won't make the cloth slower but does it shorten it's life? I'm interested in other's opinions.

I have a friend who has a room, he uses a damp micro fiber towel then a dry one. Rubs the cloth from one end to the other. Looks like it is working great for him. When I ran a hall years back I used a hand vac with rotating plastic bristles on the cheap cloth (cloth with a backing you find primarily in bars). When I got simonis on the tables I was told the vacuum would probably damage the cloth but I tried it anyways. It didnt seem to wear any worse and did a great job of keeping it clean.
