I appreciate you posting this, because I would never have thought to try Lava on cloth. I have only ever used a light Woolite wipe and a soft brush on my home table, so the idea of scrubbing with a firm brush and a pumice soap makes me a bit nervous, especially about getting all the soap out. Maha's point about residue stuck with me — I would worry about it changing how the balls roll or how the cloth feels under my bridge hand. That said, if Ernesto recommended it and your before-and-after photos show the tournament blue coming back, it is hard to argue with the result on badly stained house tables. If I tried it, I would test it first on a small, stained area and go over it with a very wet towel a few times before I did the whole bed. Thanks for sharing the method in detail.

You do have to scrub it real good with a wet towel to make sure you remove all the soap after you’ve thoroughly scrubbed in the soap / water with a brush. And I warn you, unless you wet down and do this on the entire table surface, it will not look good at all.

that was standard as it was a scratch on the 8. and was a good rule or with no ball in hand rule people could just roll the cue ball where they wanted to.

when you go to the 8 you had better hit it or lose the game.

and also you had to make an honest attempt to hit your object balls when it was your turn.

that was the rule on bar tables.

in pool rooms, we played often shootout so it wasn't a loss not hitting the 8.

they had rules because object balls would not come back, so you could not spot any balls.

and an 8 ball going in a wrong pocket or before it was last would be loss of game. same as if you made it and scratched on the break.

The "bar rule" I'm referring to is automatically losing the game just because the cue ball doesn't make contact with the 8 (with neither the cue ball or 8 ball going in a pocket)
