You should have got the blue (powder blue). On the green it will stand out like a sore thumb in that room. No way to stop the marks, but on some colors it stands out more than others.

i think i might have to agree with you on this one Blackjack. i recall that the burn streak wasnt quite as visible on the old powder blue simonis 860. and i now recall how quickly the streak appeared on the green cloth back in 2003.

guess i will take the advice Mr. Manning offered (Andrew, not Peyton), that of changing the break spot each time i break. as someone said, that way you will get lots of practice breaking from various spots.

Cool water on a terry cloth towel every ten hours of play seems to keep the marks (all marks) to a minumum. Wipe from head to foot and scrub as needed. A table spray with Quick Clean, Chalk off or Blue Coral once a month seems to restores the fabric brightness. I also use a Dirt Devil with the rotating brush every few matches.

The one year old 860 on my Gold Crown looks nearly new (except for the holes from a few bad masse shots). I would post a photo but I am not at home right now. I use the table 15 - 20+ hours a week.

The powder blue would have been the right choice, keep that in mind when you get it re-done. If you don't like marks on your felt - make sure you never invite Jamison Neu over to your house to show you some trick shots...lol... I've never seen anybody destroy cloth like Jamison can...
