I get that Taom is marketed as clean. And compared to Masters it is a fair representation. But be honest. You chalk your tip. You strike the cueball. Chalk puffs off the tip onto the table. If it didn’t, you’d never need to chalk and you’d never miscue. But Taom is a fine chalk. So it settles in between the fibers of the felt. It takes longer before it builds up enough to affect table roll. But sooner or later it will add up. Periodic (even less periodic) maintenance is still called for. For the sake of the audience, it’s worth not over exaggerating the chalk.
Of my friends that play frequently on my table, four use V10 now. When I empty out the robot vacuum, the filth is still blue in there, from the two or three folks using Masters. Some of the Masters folks only chalk once every couple racks when they remember it and they don't play here nearly as much.
I used to pick up an insane amount of chalk dust off the table when we all used Masters, it's much much less now, but again, it's all blue. I'm not saying V10 doesn't get on the cloth but the quantity is almost nothing compared to traditional chalks.
My table gets a lot of play and I just put the robot vac to work once a week. It will even clean when the lights are off and I'm on my way to bed so it's a pretty easy routine. I have noticed a bit of green tinge on pocket facings after a year of V10, but a cap of woolite in warm water about once every two to three months on the pocket facings keep them clean.
I used to have to run the robot 2-3 times a week if I wanted to not look like I'd been intimate with Papa Smurf.
I'm guessing on an average use home table you might not notice the green tinge on the facings for a year or more but it does happen. We put the table through it's paces so it adds up.
