I just bought a 9ft AMF table but it needs new rubber does anyone know what profile AMF uses? Its a commercial table 3 piece slate. I can't find any specs on amf anywhere and it dosent say on the cusion that is currently on the table. Also the slate has a few chips in it what is the best solution for making it a smooth serface ie: slate cement, wax, putty, ect... Any help would be appreciated thank you
What profile to get for AMF table

I used to own a 9' AMF. I replaced the rubber with the k55 black rubber from Diamond and it played great. Use bondo to fix any slate imperfections.
Most of the older AMF commercial tables, such as the Gran Prix used K-66 profile cushions. The rail liners can be modified to accept K-55 if you prefer. The later model AMF tables (kind of a Gold Crown knock off) I believe use K-55 profile. Measure your liners and let Rick at poolfelt.com know and he'll ship you the right cushion for that table.
Jack, JZ Mechanix is right on the money with the slate repairs.

Not sure exactly how old my table was but it was indeed similar to a GC and it took k55.
Jack, I know AMF did evolve over the years. It's a shame they are not making tables any longer. I had a 1967 Gran Prix by AMF set up in my basement for years, I liked that table.
