Hello All! I’ve watched the videos on using the stretch index on Simonis but has anyone used a stretch index for other cloths such as ANDY, CPBA, or any other decent quality cloth. Any insight would be appreciated.
What determines the correct measurement for other cloths?
Thanks!
 
I just installed CPBA Competition cloth on my table. I am not a table mechanic btw and this was my first time doing the job. The max stretch across the table that I could get was about 1-1/4". It is "English Green" color. Apparently that matters because I've heard that different colors cloths will stretch different amounts. Anyway, so you're supposed to subtract 3/4" from whatever the max stretch is, to get the stretch index. 1-1/4" minus 3/4" = 1/2". That was my stretch index. I followed the instructions from the video by Average Joe's pool on you tube and it came out pretty decent I think.
