Table care?

Both, brush first then Vacum, but do not use a Vacum with a rotating brush, and from the begining brush and vacum in only one direction, either from head to foot or reverse, but never side to side. You can also alternate breaking from different ends of the table, this way the cloth will wear more evenly. Do not use anything but Aramith Balls on your table, cheap balls will create friction marks that look like white dots or lines on the cloth and keep them clean also.
Take Care
Thanks....
I have a set of Centennials (for me) and a set pf Aramith standard balls for my son and wife to use. I will be using them too when playing with them but the Brunswicks are off limits for them. LOL
Centennials are great, they are also made by Aramith to Brunswick's specifications. Looks like you have a great room, I always wanted a pool room my house, until I opened my pool room, now it is nice to just go home and relax.!!:smile:
Take care
Thanks. It's in my living room. We moved the master bedroom to the spare and the old master is now the living room. I F-ed up when I told them where I wanted it. I knew there would be a min of 60 inched from any wall. I told them I wanted it as close to the two walls so I would have more walk room on the other side where I plan on putting a wall mount cue rack plus more access to the front door.
Well I thought that was from the outside edge of the table. OOPS so now on a straight shot across the table and the Q ball on the rail you really can't stroke back very far. O well. I'll ask them what it will take to move it over about 5 inches.
Oh forgot to mention my cue is 59" long not the standard 58"
It's really not that bad. I can deal with it. I mean how often will I have a straight across shot with the QB on the rail...
When it comes time to refelt I will have it moved over.
In addition to Craig's advice.. which I use on my home table, I like to dampen a micro fiber towel/rag and about every week or so wipe the cloth down. Just damp... not wet. Again, wiping only from head to toe only.
The new Simonis cleaning tool that works using static electricity works very well for me.

Cover it with plastic such as those old seat or furniture covers.
I have a 35 year old Brunswick with the original cloth. I always use a vacuum. A shop vac, rotating brush upright, rotating brush canister. They have not ruined the cloth. What ruins it is jump balls.
Also track lines from doing certain drills and breaking.
Burn spots will occur no matter what balls you use.
Don't chalk over the table.
No drinks, or cigs on or near the table.
DO NOT USE IT AS A STORAGE SURFACE OR ANYTHING OTHER THAN A POOL TABLE.
Get some rubber chalk holders otherwise the chalk will cause dents in the wood when players slam it on the rail.
I have heard that Quick Clean helps.
Another important thing is don't have beginners or non players learn on the table.
The cloth will not look new forever and will eventually need to be replaced, but withj care it will last a long time.

Well considering my son and wife are beginners It's kind of hard to not let them play. But others will not be playing There will be ground rules for the table. Follow them or don't play. That goes for my wife and son as well.
I never chalk over a table no matter where I am at.
We don't smoke so that is not a issue. Drinks can be had at the table not at the pool table. :wink:
Can I play
Is that by chance your wife in your picture? If so can I stop by and play?
Nice room, my wife bought me a table like that for christmas. Gets alot of compliments. Have fun

So why is it best to only go from head to toe and not side to side or changing from head to toe then going to toe to head???
I am referring to guests that see that you have a table and have never held a cue in their lives. Such as someones wife or kids who just want to play because the table is there. I had one couple that told me that their son was a great player. He wanted to play so we played. He didn't know how to hold a cue and miscued on his first shot. The game ended fast because I made the 8 ball out of turn on purpose and then suggested that we quit. If he had another turn I don't think the table would have survived.
