Cue Silk™ Table Cleaner Scam

[WinterArcher]

Where did you buy it? Same place as previous purchases?

If this product is other than Cue Silk PTC, check out the label on LA Totally Awesome for content warnings before exposing it to the senior center.

This batch came from Billiard City in Florida.

They have tried to "explain" to me that Cue Silk just buys the LAs Totally Awesome bottles and puts their special cleaner in them. I'll call BS on that.

He's clearly playing the long hustle.

17 ft worth too.

Holy crap. A retailer either misinformed or lying to support the robbery.

Curses...I just bought something from there too.

OP got scammed.

The big boys such as Seybert's, Mueller's, Pool Dawg, etc. sell Cue Slick PTC.

I would hope they would not knowingly sell a rebranded product that contains skin and eye irritants.

Billiard City in Florida sold me this batch.

They "explained" to me that Cue Silk just buys the empty bottles from LAs Totally Awesome and fills it with their custom cleaner that just happens to look and smell just like LAs totally Awesome...

I'd ask them for msds sheet. I believe they have to provide one.

Here's a different way that's cheaper:

Vacuum the table thoroughly. Some table pros use the strongest vac they can find. Pull all of the chalk dust out of the cloth.

Wet a microfiber cloth and wring it out. Rub the whole table. Get the cushions and the rail tops at the end.

My opinion: never put any liquid other than water (damp cloth) on the table unless you are working to get a stain out.

Try this on one of the tables to do a comparison.

The Diamond tables at Sierra Billiards are cleaned with a Rainbow vacuum every 2 weeks.
and wiped dry with a damp micro cloth. Tables are brushed and wiped and the pool balls
cleaned daily. My friend vacuums them and cleans his home table same way. His pool table
still looks brand new and gets played on 5-6x weekly. Using a good vacuum to clean helps.

I found the sheet for Totally Awsome easy enough but can't seem to find one for Cue Silk. I think your right that they have to provide it I asked for.

Tried that. They do not have one. Cue Silk Web Site has nothing.

I could run a GC/MS on a sample of the stuff, but the initial analysis of color, scent and the bottle all indicate that it is off the shelf LAs Totally Awesome.

If it walks, quacks and poops like a duck...
